Create a design mix using the ACI DESIGN MIX PROCEDURE with the following parameters: Non-Air Entrained Concrete Required Strength = 3500 psi Required Slump = 6 inches Maximum Size of CA = 25 mm Fineness Modulus of CA = 2.60 Unit Weight of CA = 1600 Kg/m3 SG of Water = 1.00 SG of Cement = 3.15 SG of CA = 2.84 SG of FA = 2.40   If this mix design is to be used for a concrete pavement that is 1 Km long, 3.75 m wide, and 280 mm thick, determine the following:   How many Liters of water needed for the project? How many Kilos of cement needed for the project? How many Kilos of coarse aggregates needed for the project? How many Kilos of fine aggregates needed for the project? If a concrete mixer can hold 8 cubic meters of fresh concrete, how many concrete mixer is needed for the whole project?

Types of Concrete

Concrete is the fundamental material used in civil engineering such as building materials for building structures. Concrete is an aggregate mixture of cement, sand, and fine and coarse rock pieces. The cement acts as a binding material that holds the compositions together, sets, and hardens with time. Apart from cement, there are other different types of binding materials used, such as lime concrete, bitumen, asphalt, and so on.
