Concrete Mix Design (Design Criteria (Strength, Durability, Workability,…
Concrete Mix Design
-
Workability
Slump test
-
Factors: Material Properties (fineness, moisture content, grading)
Cohesiveness, aggregate ratios
-
-
Choosing Design
-
-
Air Content
-
-
-
Aggregate size
Max. aggregate size affects amount of paste required; paste needs to be protected with a certain volume of air bubbles
-
Water/Cement Ratio
Based on required strength, durability, shrinkage considerations
-
Durability
Prescriptive: air content, w/cm ratio, SCM content, type of cemet
Performance: Shrinkage limit, durability performance limits (AAR, chloride diffusion, etc.), heat of hydration
