Create a design mix using the ACI DESIGN MIX
PROCEDURE with the following parameters:
Non-Air Entrained Concrete
Required Strength = 3500 psi
Required Slump = 6 inches
Maximum Size of CA = 25 mm
%3D
Fineness Modulus of CA = 2.60
Unit Weight of CA = 1600 Kg/m3
SG of Water = 1.00
SG of Cement = 3.15
SG of CA = 2.84
SG of FA = 2.40
%3D
If this mix design is to be used for a concrete
pavement that is 1 Km long, 3.75 m wide, and 280
mm thick, determine the following:
1. How many Liters of water needed for the
project?
2. How many Kilos of cement needed for the
project?
3. How many Kilos of coarse aggregates
needed for the project?
4. How many Kilos of fine aggregates needed
for the project?
5. If a concrete mixer can hold 8 cubic meters
of fresh concrete, how many concrete mixer
is needed for the whole project?
