Create a design mix using the ACI DESIGN MIX PROCEDURE with the following parameters: Air Entrained Concrete (Moderate) Required Strength = 35 MPa Required Slump = 6 inches Maximum Size of CA = 3/4 inches SG of Water = 1.00 SG of Cement = 3.15 SG of CA = 2.84 SG of FA = 2.40 Coarse Aggregates Parameters: Fineness Modulus of CA = 2.45 The density was identified using the ASTM C29, and the following data were gathered: Mass of container = 3.25 Kg Volume of container = 0.01439 m³3 Mass of container + Water = 17.64 Kg Mass of container + Coarse Aggregates = 26.42 Kg (Note: Use two decimal places for the density of aggregates)
