Mix design
1. Question 2 Refer to Appendix A for tables and equations to be used. Use the CNCI method. You are given the following design parameters for a concrete mix: The compressive strength of the concrete mix must be 40 MPa after 28 days. The cement that is going to be used is a CEM I 52.5 with a relative density of 3.14. The stone available is a 19.0 mm stone with a dry compacted bulk density (CBD) of 1780 kg/m³ and a relative density of 2.24. An average, natural sand with a fineness modulus of 2.45 and a relative density of 2.86 is going to be used for the mix. The slump on site is specified as 75 mm. The concrete is going to be compacted by moderate vibration on site. Calculate and show the amount of water, cement, stone and sand that is needed to make up 1 m of concrete mix as specified above. water requirementinliters w:c ratio • Cement content (kg/m3 of concrete) = • Mst = CBDS: (K – 0.1 FM) M.

6.32 The results of an experiment to evaluate the effects of a water reducer are shown in Table P6.32. a. Calculate the water-cement ratio in each of the three cases. b. Using water reducer, how can we increase the compressive strength of concrete without changing workability? Refer to the appropriate case in the table. Chapter 6 Portland Cement, Mixing Water, and Admixtures c. Using water reducer, how can we improve workability without changing the compressive strength? Refer to the appropriate case in the table. d. Using water reducer, how can we reduce cost without changing workability or strength? (Assume that the cost of the small amount of water reducer added is less than the cost of cement.) Refer to the appropriate case in the table. e.
