Concrete Mix Design - ACI Method The concrete will be non-air entrained since the structure is not exposed to severe weathering. Required average strength will be 24 MPa with slump of 75 to 100 mm. The coarse aggregate has a nominal maximum size of 37.5 mm and dry-rodded mass of 1600 kg/m³. Other properties of the ingredients are: cement Type I with specific gravity of 3.15; coarse aggregate -- bulk specific gravity 2.68 and absorption 0.5 percent; fine aggregate -- bulk specific gravity 2.64, absorption 0.7 percent, and fineness modulus 2.8.
