Lower the permeability due to lesser size of soil particle and lesser voids.

It's about thin structure so rapid hardening is correct.

The given answer is correct, option D look at the type of cement to be avoided.

The correct answer is D because we only use blast furnace slag cement for thick so we will avoid it for thin RCC structures.

A blast furnace is a low-heat cement so here diff between a blast furnace and low-heat cement is clear. Blast furnace slag cement and low-heat cement are both used for dams etc massive concrete work and they give low strength in the initial days.

It should be RAPID HARDENING CEMENT because it has high heat of hydration and high shrinkage which renders it unsuitable for construction of thin RCC structures.
