X factor in IS 10262 2019 refers to the factor used to calculate the water content in concrete mix design.
X factor is used to determine the water content required for a specific workability of concrete.
It takes into account factors such as the grading of aggregates, maximum size of aggregate, and the type of cement used.
The X factor is calculated using a formula specified in IS 10262 2019.
For example, a higher X factor...
The new code IS 10262 has updated guidelines for concrete mix design.

I applied via Approached by Company and was interviewed in Sep 2021. There were 3 interview rounds.
Moisture correction is the adjustment made to a sample's weight to account for the presence of water or moisture.
Moisture correction is necessary to obtain accurate results in chemical analysis.
It involves weighing a sample, drying it to remove moisture, and re-weighing it to determine the amount of moisture present.
The correction factor is then applied to the original weight to obtain the dry weight of the sample.
