(d) 90 Min 130 140 The Mix is for M80 Grade of concrete done at ACC Concrete.
(e) 120 Min 100 110 Admixture used is PC based admixture in both the mixes with same per Kg rate considered
(e) 180 Min 90 100 The rates taken are based on Mumbai market and an avg of prevaling market prices in first half of 2012 year.
It is observed that ALCCOFINE 1203 reduces PC Based Admixture demand in high grade concrete. Hardended Concrete Properties: (Compressive strength) g g
(i) 1 Day 25 29 It is also observed because of cementetious constituent present in ALCCOFINE 1203 , it futher optimizes the does of total
(ii) 3 days 45 49 Cementetious content in concrete.
(iii) 7 days 70 74 It is witnessed that silicafume comes in Condensed formand is in need of colloidal Mixer for Dedensifying the same
(iv) 28 days 83 88 If not done properly may result into higher consumption of Admixture resulting in to cost increase of concrete.
