Combined Gradation of Aggregates Project Consultant Contractor Mix Identification No. Sample Deasription Sampling Method Test Method Location

The document provides the mix design and material proportions for a C35/20 concrete mix. It specifies the target mean strength as 48.12 MPa, with a maximum water-cement ratio of 0.42 and minimum cement content of 400 kg/m3. The mix design lists the source and quantities of cement, aggregates, water and admixture to achieve 1 m3 of concrete with an absolute volume of 1 m3, water-cement ratio of 0.41, and 2% air content. Calculations are shown to determine the individual aggregate quantities based on their proportions by weight and volume in the combined aggregates.
