Abstract
Dada S. Patil, Associate Professor at AIKTC, SoET, Panvel, Navi Mumbai, draws attention to a commonly overlooked but critical issue in concrete construction: the unchecked assumption that all water is suitable for mixing and curing - a practice that can lead to serious structural failures as presuming the quality of mixing and curing water in RCC construction, without scientific validation, can quietly sabotage structural integrity.
