This document summarizes the results of a trial mix test conducted to evaluate the slump retention of a concrete mix over 3 hours. The mix contained 420kg of cement, 757.8kg of 20mm aggregate, 279.2kg of 12mm aggregate, 863.2kg of sand, 119.8kg of water, and admixtures. The initial slump was 220mm and remained above 210mm for the full 3 hours. Compressive strengths met the 4000psi specification. The mix was approved for use in an airport extension project.
