In small work, we measure in volume.

And in mass work, we measure in weight to eliminate the bulking of sand.

Therefore E is correct.

Is it only weight of water to that of cement?

Weight = unit wt * vol.
so A and B correct.

Ajay said:   8 years ago
Weight = Unit Weight x Vol.
Water Unit Weight = 1000 Kg/m3.
But Cement Unit Weight = 1440 Kg/m3.
So, 1000 Kg Water = 1 m3 Water.
But, 1440 Kg Cement = 1m3 Cement.

So, I think Option B is Correct. Weight of Water to Weight of Cement.
