D- Determination of Target Mean Strength


The Cylinderical targeat average mean compressive strength at 28 day's is given bythe following
Equation

Targeat mean strength (T s)=f ck + (Y*S)


Where
Ts=Targeat mean strenght
f ck=Characteristic Compressive Strength at 28 day's - 15 N/mm2
s=standared Deviation - 4.5
y=statical value (from contr. Speci.6404(111) - 1.64
So from the above Equation Cylinderical targeat mean strength - 27.2N/mm2

The Equivalent Cubical targeat mean strength=1.27(27.2) - 34.00N/mm2

D- Determination of Target Mean Strength


The Cylinderical targeat average mean compressive strength at 28 day's is given bythe
following Equation

Targeat mean strength (T s)=f ck + (Y*S)


Where
Ts=Targeat mean strenght
f ck=Characteristic Compressive Strength at 28 day's - 28 N/mm2
s=standared Deviation - 4.5
y=statical value (from contr. Speci.6404(111) - 1.64
S= from the above Equation Cylinderical targeat mean strength - 27.2N/mm2
The Equivalent Cubical targeat mean strength=1.27(27.2) - 35

E- Determination of Dry Mass of Coarse Aggregate


The quality of coarse aggregate estimated from ACI211-1-81 Table A-1.5.3.6 for a finesse
modules of 3.00and 19 mm Nominal maximum size of coarse aggregate the table indicates
that 0.64 m3 of coarse on dry- Rodd basics.Therefore the required dry mass for coarse
aggregate calculated as

Coarse Aggregate Mass = 0.601 * 1716.8 1031.77 kg

Cement Content Trials = 400 kg


Mixing Water = 190 kg

Atrial mix conducted with constant water cement ratio of 0.5 and 380kg of cement content
targeting to the required strength and workability. The computation result summarized below

G1-Detrmination of Dry Mass of Coarse Aggregate

From ACI 211-1-81Table A1.5.3.7.1 the mass of cubic meter of non air-entrained made with
aggregate having a maximum size of 20mm is estimated to be 2345kg/m 3 by interpolation
The Mass already known are:
Water = 190 kg/m3
Cement = 400 kg/m3
Coarse Aggregate = 1032 kg/m3
Total = 1622.2 kg/m3

From This Mass of Fine = 2345 1622.2 = 722.8 kg/m3
