A small amount of resin weighing 4.56g occupies a height of a 10-ml graduated cylinder equivalent to one ml. One mL of water was added and the level was read at 1.7 mL. Estimate the porosity of the resin.
In a ready-mix plant, cylindrical samples are prepared and tested periodically to detect any mix problem and to ensure that the compressive strength is higher than the lower specification limit. The minimum target value was at 42.0 MPa. The following compressive strength data were collected: All in Mega-Pascal (MPa) 41.8, 38.3, 42.5, 39.6, 42.5, 39.3, 41.2, 40.9, 39.8, 41.6 42.9, 43.4, 39.9, 44.7, 45.1, 43.9, 42.4, 41.7, 41.1, 42.1 Calculate the Arithmetic Mean, Median, and Standard Deviation.

Working on major construction project that requires considerable amounts of concrete to be used,you are asked to design a concrete mix following the BRE methodology. The concrete mixspecifications are:o Characteristic compressive strength of 50 N/mm 2 at 7 days.o Failure rate of 2%o Previous control data yielded a standard deviation of 5 N/mm 2o CEM-I 52.5o Air-entraining is not requiredo Required slump 120 mmo Coarse aggregate: Crushed maximum size 10mmo Fine aggregate: Uncrushed with 45% passing 600 μm sieveo Relative density of aggregates: 2.7o Coarse aggregate has 4% moistureo Fine aggregate is dry and has 1.2% absorption.o Volume of the required trial mix: 0.120 m3 Create the mix design and state what actions and recommenations you would do if trial produced a result with a mean compressive strength of 64 MPa at 7 days and the slump was 80mm.
