Segregation occurs when less water cement ratios due to dry of concrete, bleeding occurs when high or excess W/C but honeycombing occurs only a bad mixing process happened so honeycombing is the correct answer.

Honeycombing is the term used to describe areas of the surface that are coarse and stony. It may be caused by insufficient fine material in the mix, perhaps due to incorrect aggregate grading or poor mixing.

In concrete, there are two types of segregation.

1. Course aggregates are separated from the concrete.
2. Groute (cement+paste) is separated from the concrete.

Honeycombing is the right answer.

When concrete is poured into the foundation forms it does not just flow in like water and fill up the forms to the top. If it is not vibrated properly it may leave voids called honeycombing.

Segregation occurs due to pouring from height and no compaction.

Bleeding happen due to excess water (increased W/C Ratio).

Honeycombing occurs due to improper compaction & W/C ratio.

Honeycomb is a form of void and hollow in a body of concrete object. And these will be happen if there were some congestion of rebar's and insufficient vibration during concrete casting.

Segregation has happened during the pouring or placing of concrete from more than 1m height.

Bleeding is happened due to excessive water.

That's why honeycomb is the right answer.

Segregation should be the answer, if the mix and the proportion is bad, we will have segregation.

We mixed properly, but we are not compact properly, we will get Honey Combing.
