Question
Compute for the concrete mix proportion for a 6" diameter concrete cylinder mold with 12" height and 6"x6"x21" concrete beam mold
Slump = 25mm to 50mm
fc' = 3000psi at 28 days
Maximum size of Coarse Aggregates (gravel) = 3/4"
Unit weight of Coarse aggregate= 1651 kg/m³
Cement Type I Specific Gravity=3.15
Specific Gravity for Coarse Aggregates=2.77
Specific Gravity for Fine Aggregate=2.61
Fineness Modulus (FM)=2.69

Interpolate values that are not present/exact in each table

hint: compute for the mix proportion of 1cubic meter of concrete after getting the mix proportions relate it to the volume of the structure above (concrete cylinder and concrete beam) to get the batch weights of the materials.
