Water is a vital resource used in various sectors, including construction and drinking purposes. To ensure the safety and suitability of water for these applications, it is essential to conduct thorough testing. Water quality plays a crucial role in construction projects and public health. Contaminated water can have detrimental effects on concrete strength, leading to structural issues in buildings and infrastructure. Similarly, inadequate drinking water quality can pose severe health risks, causing waterborne diseases. Hence, regular water testing is essential to ensure compliance with established standards, protect public health, and maintain the integrity of construction projects.

Water Testing for Construction Purposes – IS 456:2000 defines the permissible limits of various parameters in water used for construction purposes. The key parameters are as follows: pH Value, Chlorides (as Cl-), Sulphates (as SO42-), Suspended Matter, Organic Impurities, Alkalies (expressed as Na2O equivalent).

Water Testing for Drinking Purposes – IS 10500:2012, sets guidelines for the permissible limits of various parameters in water used for human consumption. The key parameters and their acceptable limits are as follows: pH Value, Turbidity, Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Chlorides (as Cl-), Fluoride (as F-), Arsenic (as As), Lead (as Pb), Pesticides (as sum of all compounds).

Water testing as per the IS standards (IS 456 for construction and IS 10500 for drinking purposes) is crucial to ensure the quality and safety of water for their respective applications. By adhering to the permissible and acceptable limits defined in these standards, the integrity of construction projects and safeguard public health can be maintained.
