- A concrete aggregate mix must contain at least 31% sand by volume for proper batching. One source of material, which has 25% sand and 75% coarse aggregate, sells for $3 per cubic meter (m3). Another source, which has 40% sand and 60% coarse aggregate, sells for $4.40/m3. Determine the least cost per cubic meter of blended aggregates.46.5 kg (102.3 lb) of fine aggregate is mixed with 72.3 kg (159.1 lb) of coarse aggregate. The fine aggregate has a moisture content of 2.0% and absorption of 3.4%, whereas the coarse aggregate has a moisture content of 1.3% and absorption of 3.8%. What is the amount of water required to increase the moisture contents of both fine and coarse aggregates to reach absorption? Why is it important to determine the amount of water required to increase the moisture content of aggregate to reach absorption? Use one system of units only as specified by the instructor.Calculate the bulk specific gravity of combined aggregate if you know the specific gravities of coarse aggregate (C), fine aggregate (F) and Mineral Filler (MF) are 2.61, 2.63 and 2.71 respectively.
