K= 1.64 ( where 5% result are allowed to fall below specific design strength)

Step 2:Determination of Water Content Ratio:By Using Table: 11.11 & Figure: 11.3 from concrete technology by M.S. Shetty

Water / Cement Ratio = 0.65

Step 3:Determination of Water Content :


Considering Slump: Maximum Size of Aggregate : 180 mm 20mm (Crushed)

By Table 11.2 water content is 225 Kg/m^3


** Reduction of Water:
Since portland composite cement will be used and most of the cement brands uses more than 20% Flyash. Assuming Fly ash content 20% . Water to be reduced according to the table 11.13 considering slump = 125mm Mix of Fly Ash in Cement: 20% Reduction per CBM: 15kg/m^3 225-15 So Final Water Content : 225 - 15 = 210 kg/m^3

Step 4 :Determination of Cement Content:


Cement Content = =

( 100 - p)*w ( 100 -0.7P)* W/C ( 100 - 20)*210

Here, p = percent of flyash W = water content

(100 -0.7*20)* 0.65 = 301 Kg pC the fly ash content = 100 - p 20*337 = 100 - 20 = 75.25 kg Hence the total cementitious material content is 301 + 75.25 = 376.25 kg/m^3 Say, Cement Content = 376 kg/m^3 Refferring to table 9.20, for very severe exposure condition concrete cover 25mm the maximum free water/cemetitious material ratio is 0.50 and minimum cement content is 350 kg/m^3 Thus water content = 376*0.50 = 188 kg/m^3 *** Water also can be reduced by use wate reducing Admixture or high range water reducer Rheobuild 623 is Prescibe to be used and water reducer considered 10%

So Water = 188 - 18.8 Step 5:Determination of Total Aggregate:

= 169.2 kg/m^3 169 kg/m^3

Bulk Specific gravity of 20mm Crushed Aggregate = 2.65 Free Water Content = 188 kg/m^3 By using figure 11.4 , Density of wet Concrete is 2401 kg/m^3

So weight of total Aggrgate = 2401 - ( 376+ 169) = 1856kg/m^3 Step 6:Determination of Fine Aggregate:Water/ Cement Ratio = 0.50 Maximum size of Aggregate = 20mm Ratio of Fine Aggregate = 40%

Quantity of Fine Aggregate = 742 kg/ m^3


Amount of Coarse Aggregate = 1837 - 735 = 1114 kg/ m^3

So Final Estimated Quantities:


Cement = 376 kg FA = 742 kg CA = 1114 Kg Water = 169 kg Admixure @ 1% of Count weight = 3.76 2404.76kg

Step 4 :Determination of Cement Content:


Total Water = 189 kg/m^3 Water /Cement Ratio= 0.55 Cement Content = 189/0.55 = 358kg/m^3

So, 344 Kg/m^3


According to the durabelity and exposure condition table 9.20, Minimum cement content is = 325 kg/m^3

Water to be reduced according to the table 11.13 considering slump = 125mm Mix of Fly Ash in Cement: 20% Reduction per CBM: 15kg/m^3 225-15 So Final Water Content : 225 - 15 = 210 kg/m^3

Step 4 :Determination of Cement Content:


Cement Content = =

( 100 - p)*w ( 100 -0.7P)* W/C ( 100 - 20)*210

Here, p = percent of flyash W = water content

(100 -0.7*20)* 0.62 = 315 Kg pC the fly ash content = 100 - p 20*315 = 100 - 20 = 78.75 kg Hence the total cementitious material content is 315 + 78.75 = 395.75 kg/m^3 Say, Cement Content = 394 kg/m^3 Refferring to table 9.20, for Severe exposure condition concrete cover 30mm the maximum free water/cemetitious material ratio is 0.50 and minimum cement content is 350 kg/m^3 Thus water content = 394*0.50 = 197 kg/m^3 *** Water also can be reduced by use wate reducing Admixture or high range water reducer Rheobuild 623 is Prescibe to be used and water reducer considered 10%

So Water = 197 - 19.7 Step 5:Determination of Total Aggregate:
