Water Absorption Test
The Water Absorption Test checks how much water a material like concrete, brick, or aggregate can absorb. The sample is first dried, then soaked in water for a set time. By comparing the weight before and after, we can calculate how much water was absorbed. This test helps to understand the quality and durability of the material. Materials that absorb too much water may be weaker or more likely to crack over time, especially in wet conditions.
Advantages of Water Absorption Test:
- Shows how porous the material is
- Helps assess durability and strength
- Useful for quality control in construction
- Simple and cost-effective test
- Supports better material selection for long-lasting structures
