Question

The water-cement ratio is important because it influences all of the desirable qualities of concrete. Briefly describe how super high strength concrete (f'c = 15 ksi) can be made?

Water cement ratio inversely related with the strength of concrete if water cement ratio increases then the strength decreases and vice versa. And directly related to the workability because if water cement ratio increases then the concrete more wet and more consistence and can be placed easily.
