Measurement of sand moisture composition for concrete mixture

This study proposes a measurement device that monitors the volume of water in wet sand. The aim is to control the amount of water in the concrete mixture from over-watered sand that would affect the balance concrete mixture ratio during construction process. The proposed system would increase the qu...
