On reference of your Letter Refi# No Dated the design of
conerete mix for M25 of concrete was taken up for the Project «
The Important criteria kept in view while designing the concrete mixes are strength,
durability and workability of concrete. Various methods employed for concrete mix design,
such as, ACI, and IS have been referred to. The mix proportion is arrived at theoretically,
based on IS recommendations. Appropriate modifications are made depending on the
‘material properties observed and the specific requirements of the job, Concrete cubes are cast
and tested for compressive strength at the end of 7 days and 28 days.

DESIGN MIX:
TTo satisfy the requirements mentioned in the data for mix design the proportion by
weight listed in Table-6 has been arrived at, with marginal adjustments of trial mixes
for M25 grade of conerete using aggregates of 20mm down, A number of trial
castings have been made and the best suitable proportion based on reproducibility of
28-day compressive strength has been furnished,
RECOMMENDATIONS:
‘Compressive strength test results of the trial specimens cast in our laboratory are
furnished in Table-6, It can be seen that 28-day strength is less than the target mean
compressive strength indicated in item C. As such, it is recommended that the
concrete mix proportions indicated in Table-6 for M25 grade not to be adopted at
site, So the mix design has to be reworked accordingly to meet the required target
mean compressive strength, to proceed further.
REMARKS: a
The design mix is applicable only for those Ordinary Portland cements whose
properties are similar to the one supplied to us for conducting the mix design.
All the materials shall be weigh batched and volume batched also. Suitable
corrections are to be applied for weight of aggregates, if they are not saturated and
surface dry.
The bulk density and specific gravity of materials to be used shall be confirmed by
testing of such materials from time fo time. If any deviations in the above parameters
are observed, suitable corrections for proportions shall be applied at site.
Suitable correction is to be applied to free water-cement ratio, if the aggregates are not
saturated and surface dry.

5. | Minor adjustments in free water-cement ratio (on the lower side) may be carried out in
actual work to get the desired slump, if necessary.
Admixture dosage may be suitably adjusted at site, if required, depending on the
actual concrete making materials used,
‘The sand to be used shall be free from all deleterious materials like si
clay, mica and
other organic impurities. The gradation shall be same as that used in the design mix.
‘The coarse aggregates and fine aggregate used shall conform to the graded aggregate
requirements as given in IS: 383-2016.
Atssite, it is suggested to use suitable vibrators for compaction,
The quality of water to be used for concreting shall conform to IS: 456-2000.
(Reaffirmed 2011)
In the design calculations, the degree of quality control considered is Control Level A.
Hence, it is mandatory to exercise at least the same degree of quality control in the
actual work,
