IMPLEMENTATION OF MAGNETIZED WATER TO IMPROVE THE PROPERTIES OF CONCRETE

This research examines the properties of fresh and hardened concrete for different mixes prepared with magnetized water (MW). MW is also use d to investigate the reduction in the amount of cement required to achieve specified compressive strengths. 149 cylinders were prepared for all mixes to determine concrete properties. For the purpose of comparison, similar cylinders were prepared using ordinary tap water. MW was prepared by passing the tap water through devices of different magnetic strengths 6000 and 9000 Gauss at the same velocity.
