Design a concrete mix to implement a concrete slab (exposed to sever conditions moisture and freezing and thawing) with design compressive strength 30 MPa, a standard deviation equals to 4 and the percentage expected less than minimum strength is 10%. Sulphate Resisting Portland Cement is used. The maximum size of an angular aggregate is 20 mm with apparent density 1500 kg/m3. The available fine aggregate has fineness modulus 2.4 An air entraining agent has been used in the mix.
