Q1:Prepare mix design for given data;
The28-day compressive strength should be 4000 psi,The slump should be between 75mm and 100mm and the maximum aggregate size should not exceed 19mm.The properties of the materials are as follows:
Cement: Type I, specific gravity=3.15
Coarse Aggregate:
Bulk specific gravity=2.64; absorption capacity=0.45%; dry-rodded unit weight=1612kg/m3, surface moisture=1.05%
Fine Aggregate:
Bulk specific gravity=2.67; absorption capacity=1.15%; fineness modulus=2.80;surface moisture=3.13%
