The effects on behaviour of latex concrete with variation of water cement ratio / Wan Shukri Wan Yaacob

The present study inquired into the effects on behaviour of latex concrete with variation of water cement ratio. A grade 30 concrete was designed at varying water cement ratio of 0.3, 0.35, 0.4, 0.45, 0.5, 0.55 and 0.6 and 10 per cent latex was added in the mix. Latex is considered to comprise 40 pe...
