Effect of the potability of water to the compressive strength of concrete
This study determined the effect of potability of mixing water in the compressive strength of concrete. Mixing water came from tap, deep well, Manila Bay, Laguna Lake, Pasig River and Pilar Creek. The control mix used ideal mixing water, which is potable. Seven concrete cylinder samples were made fo...

| Summary: | This study determined the effect of potability of mixing water in the compressive strength of concrete. Mixing water came from tap, deep well, Manila Bay, Laguna Lake, Pasig River and Pilar Creek. The control mix used ideal mixing water, which is potable. Seven concrete cylinder samples were made for each type of mixing water. These concrete cylinder samples were tested for their compressive strengths. Each mixing water sample was tested for potability. Comparing the potability test and compression test results, show that as mixing water gets less potable compressive strength decreases. |
