Question

What is the maximum size of coarse aggregates in mm needed for the design mix?

Round down your answer to the nearest whole number

Air Entrained Concrete (Moderate)
Required Strength = 35 MPa
Required Slump = 6 inches
Maximum Size of CA = 3/4 inches
SG of Water = 1.00
SG of Cement = 3.15
SG of CA = 2.84
SG of FA = 2.40
Coarse Aggregates Parameters:
Fineness Modulus of CA = 2.45
The density was identified using the ASTM C29, and the following data were gathered:
Mass of container = 3.25 Kg
Volume of container = 0.01439 m³
Mass of container + Water = 17.64 Kg
Mass of container + Coarse Aggregates = 26.42 Kg
(Note: Use two decimal places for the density of aggregates)
