State whether the following is true or false.
Waterproof cement makes concrete completely impermeable to water.

  • A.False only at small scales
  • B.True
  • C.False
  • D.True only at large scales

Answer: C

Correct answer: False

The name promises more than the material delivers: water-repellent cement reduces capillary absorption, but concrete remains permeable and water under pressure will pass through it. Genuine watertightness comes from a low water-cement ratio, proper compaction and curing, and where necessary a membrane.
