Honey combing is right answer. I agree.

Honey combing is the correct one.

I think honey combing is due to improper compaction of concrete.

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. This can be corrected by increasing the sand and cement content of the mix and by proper mixing, placing and compaction. Alternatively, honeycombing may be caused by leakage of grout or mortar fraction from the concrete at construction or formwork joints.

Segregation is the correct answer.

As a result of segregation, bleeding and all honey combing is the result, due to all above honey combing is the resulting product so.

Honey combing is the correct answer.

Honeycomb, blooding and segregation are the effect of badly mix concrete.

Segregation is one of the effects of badly mixed concrete. Honey combing occurred due to inadequate compaction. Bleeding is the result over compaction of concrete.

According to me options a b& c, all these happen.

- segregation means separation of coarse &fine aggregate.
- bleeding means separation of excess water from concrete.
- honeycombing means the formation of voids appears in form of a honeycomb.

All these phenomena happen because of bad mixing.

Yeah, All three options are due to badly mixed concrete.
