Calculate the required adjustment to the amount of mixing water per cubic yard of coffee to maintain a combatant w/c ratio. Mention if water is added or removed from the mixture. The concrete producer plans to use aggregate from the stockpile: 1920 Ibs/yd^3 coarse aggregate and 1160 Ibs/yd^3 of fine aggregates, properties of aggregate are: Coarse aggregate: Absorption capacity= 3.5% Total moisture= 4.3%. Fine aggregate: Absorption capacity= 1.4% Total moisture= 0.8%
You want to increase the sustainability of a concrete mixture by replacing 35% of the portland cement by mass with a locally available natural pozzolan that can be used in place of ordinary portland cement (CEMPOZZ). The quantity of cement in the concrete mixture is 620 lb/yd3. You can assume that the specific gravity of portland cement and CEMPOZZ are the same for this problem. What is the quantity of CEMPOZZ for the mixture? Round to the nearest whole number and do not include units when entering your answer.

Design of a concrete mix showed that 1 m3 of the mix contains 320 kg cement, 540 kg sand. A trial mix having the same proportions as the designed mix, enough for 6 standard cubes, containing 3.5 liters water was made. It is required to calculate the quantities by weight and volume for the construction of a concrete road having 25 m width, 1000 m long, and 0.25 m thick, given that the trial mix gave slump and compressive strength as designed.Specific density of cement = 3.15Specific density of aggregate (coarse or fine) = 2.7Unit weight of cement = 1440 kg/m3Unit weight of sand = 1600 kg/m3Unit weight of gravel = 1760 kg/m3 Using BSI Method Only
Students in the materials lab performed the specific gravity test and bulk unit weight and voids of aggregate on a sample of coarse aggregate and obtained the following data: Mass of oven dried aggregate: 1042 g Mass of aggregate submerged in water: 646 g Mass of saturated surface dry aggregate: 1058 g Bulk dry specific gravity of aggregate. Find the absorption of aggregate. If the dry rodded unit weight of aggregate found to be 1695 kg/m3 , calculate the percent voids between aggregate particles in this test. We blend this aggregate with other aggregate with bulk dry specific gravities of 2.23. Calculate the bulk dry specific gravity of the blend if the blend proportion is 40:60.
A box measuring 50 cm x 50 cm x 50 cm is filled to the top with dry coarse aggregate of mass 187.5 kg. The water absorption and specific gravity of the aggregate are 0.5% and 2.5, respectively. The maximum quantity of water (in kg, round off to 2 decimal places) required to fill the box completely is bris
The table below shows the properties of materials required to design a concrete mix. It is required to:a- Make a complete mix design.b- Express the proportions by volume for water, coarse aggregate, and fine aggregate, knowning that weight of 1 m3 gravel = 1760 kg/m3 and weight of 1 m3 sand = 1600 kg/m3.c- From the designed mix it is required to make a trial mix enough for six standard cubes (15 cm x 15 cm x 15 cm), six standard cylinders (d = 15 cm, h = 30 cm), and three standard beams (15 cm x 15 cm x 70 cm). what are the proportions of this mix?
