TARGET STRENGTH Apart from mix design, the strength of the concrete also depends on other factors like mixing method, climate etc. Hence Target strength (Fei) of concrete should be more than designed characteristic strength (f.4) for safety. Target strength for m20 grade concrete can be found from the formula given in the codebook. Fog = = fo +1.658 Standard deviation (S) value for the M20 grade concrete is given in table 1 of 1S10262. hitps:icviind,comim20-grade.concrote-mix-design-is10262latestedtion!

IV. SELECTION OF WATER-CEMENT RATIO The maximum water-cement ratio for M20 grade concrete can be found from Table 5-IS456 given above.

V. SELECTION OF WATER CONTENT Maximum water content to get upto 50mm slump in concrete is given in Table 2 of 1810262. Table 2 Maximum Water Content per Cubic Metre of Concrete for Nominal Maximum Size of Aggregate (Clauses 4.2, A-5 and B-5) hitps:icviind,comim20-grade.concrote-mix-design-is10262latestedtion! aayamnaret, 9:34 PM M20 Grade Concrete Mx Design -IS10262 Latest Eton - Chil RnD St Nominal Maximum Maximum Water No. Size of Aggregate Content” mm kg (a) (2) @) i) 10 208 ii) 20 186 iii) 40 165 NOTE — These quantities of mixing water are for use in computing cementitious material contents for trial batches. ” Water}content corresponding to saturated surface dry aggregate. Table 2 Maximum Water Content per cubic meter ~ IS10262 For aggregate = 20mm, Slump = 50mm Maximum Water Content = 186 L But we need a 75mm slump in our concrete as per the specification given in section 1. Clause 4.2 suggests an increase of 3% of water content in increase slump by 25mm slump in concrete. For aggregate = 20mm, Slump = 75mm hitps:icviind,comim20-grade.concrote-mix-design-is10262latestedtion! mayamnaret, 9:34 PM M20 Grade Concrete Mx Design -IS10262 Latest Eton - Chil RnD Water-content for 75mm Slump = 186+(0.03*186) As per Clause 4.2 = 191.58L Adopted Water Content = 190 L VI. CALCULATION OF CEMENT Weight of cement can be calculated from the water-cement ratio and the water content. Adopted Water Cement Ratio = 0.55 Cement required = Water Content / W-C Ratio = 190/0.55 = 345.45 kg Adopted Cement Content = 345 kg VIl COARSE AND FINE AGGREGATE Coarse aggregate ratios for different Zones of Fine aggregates are given in Table 3 of IS10262. These are ratios are valid for 0.5 Water-cement ratio.

If the water-cement ratio increase by 0.05 we need to decrease C.A ratio by 0.01 and vice versa. Hence we need to subtract 0.01 from the above C.A ratio. hitps:icviind,comim20-grade.concrote-mix-design-is10262latestedtion! annayamnaret, 9:34 PM M20 Grade Concrete Mx Design -IS10262 Latest Eton - Chil RnD For aggregate = 20mm, Fine aggregate= Zone II, Water-cement ratio = 0.55 Coarse Aggregate ratio (For w/c =0.5) Coarse Aggregate ratio (For w/c =0.55) Final Fine Aggregate ratio =0.62 =0.61 0.39 ‘Table3-1S10262 < https://civilmd.com/ content/uploads/2020/05/Volume-of-Coarse-Aggregate-per- unit-Volume-of-Total-aggregate-for-concrete.jpg> (0.62-0.01 = 0.61) (1-0.61) = 0.39 VII MIX CALCULATIONS OF M20 GRADE CONCRETE This section deals with the calculation of the weight of fine aggregate and coarse aggregate from the aggregate ratio, cement and water. hitps:icviind,comim20-grade.concrote-mix-design-is10262latestedtion! sonyamnaret, 9:34 PM M20 Grade Concrete Mx Design -IS10262 Latest Eton - Chil RnD A Volume of Conerete B Total Volume of Cement C Volume of Water D Total Aggregates requirement E Coarse Aggregate (C.A) F Fine Aggregate (FA) =1cum = Cement/(S.G*1000) = 345/(3.15*1000) 110 cum = Water /(S.6*1000) = 190/(1#1000) = 0.190 cum A- (B+C#D+E) = (0.11040.190) =0.7 cum *C.Aratio* SG * 1000 7#0.61*2.74 *1000 =1170 kg =F*FAratio* S.G* 1000 740.39*2.74 *1000 48 kg Cement, Fine and Coarse Aggregate needed for M20 grade concrete Therefore to prepare one cubic meter of m20 grade concrete we need the following quantities of cement, fine aggregate (sand), coarse aggregate(stone) and water. hitps:icviind,comim20-grade.concrote-mix-design-is10262latestedtion! 4yamnaret, 9:34 PM S.No. MATERIALS 1 Cement 2 Fine Aggregate 3 Coarse Aggregate (20mm) 4 WATER M20 Grade Concrete Mx Design -IS10262 Latest Eton - Chil RnD QUANTITY 345 kg 750 kg 1170 kg 190L To find the design mix ratio, divide the calculated value of all materials by the weight of cement. Therefore Mix Design Ratio of M2 0 Grade concrete by weight is Cement: F.A: C.A: Water = 1: 2.17:3.4:0.55 Note: This is a Design mix ratio by weight which is different from the Nominal volumetric mix ratio, Read this post to understand the difference between Nominal Mix and Design between-nominal-mix-concrete-and-design-mix/> https://civilrnd.com/difference- ‘Placing Conditions Desree of = Qo @ ® ~s sees | ie See “eer Lightly reinforced ae i i o = See See | Medion 0.100 | wn pa, ‘Trench fill, ] High 100-150 =n ie bas NOTE — For mow of he pig cnitoa, inurl vena (devia) sabe The daca of hs sal ‘drm Neto Sosy ol eigenen hat ad Mia of mtn.
