5.1.1 Mixing
The materials are weighted first on the weighting machine as per the mix
design by IS specification. For the material to be mixed, the drum type of the
mixture machine is used as shown in Figure below.
After 24 hours of the casting, the specimens are de-moulded and are
transferred to curing tank where in they are allowed to cure for 7, & 28 days.
5.2 Mix design for M 25 Grade of concrete as per IS 10262:2009
Trial mix - 1
Data :-
Grade design = M25
Type of cement = OPC 53
Maximum nominal size of aggregate = 20 mm
Minimum cement content = 320 kg/m3
Maximum cement content = 450 Kg/ m3
Maximum water-cement ratio = 0.55
Workability in terms of Slump = 50 mm
Exposure condition = moderate
Degree of supervision = Good
Type of aggregate = Crushed angular aggregate
Chemical Admixture = Nil
Test Data:-
a) Coarse aggregate
Specific gravity = 2.68
b) Fine aggregate
Specific gravity
= 2.65
Water absorption = 1%
F) Mix Calculation :-
3
1) Volume of concrete = 1 m
2) Volume of cement = (mass of cement / S.G. of cement) x (1/1000)
= (407.617/3.15) x (1/10000)
= 0.1294 m3
3) Volume of water = (mass of water / S.G. of water) x (1/1000)
= (191.58/1) x (1/1000)
= 0.191 m3
4) Volume of all in aggregate = 1- (Volume of cement+ Volume of water)
= 1- (0.1294+0.191)
= 0.6796 m3
5) Volume of coarse aggregate = 0.6796 x 0.62 x S.G. of coarse aggregate x 1000
= 0.6796 x 0.62 x 2.68 x 1000
= 1128.3 kg/m3
6) Volume of fine aggregate = 0.6796 x 0.38 x S.G. of fine aggregate x 1000
= 0.696 x 0.36 x 2.65 x 1000
= 683.771 kg/m3
G) Mix:-
Cement = 407.617 kg/m3
Water = 191.58 kg/m3
Fine aggregate = 683.771 kg/m3
Coarse aggregate = 1128.3 kg/m3
Water cement ratio = 0.47

Type of aggregate = Crushed angular aggregate
Maximum cement content = 450 Kg/ m3
Chemical Admixture = Nil
Test Data:-
Specific gravity of cement = 3.15
a) Coarse aggregate
Specific gravity = 2.68
Water absorption = 0.60%
Free (surface) moisture =Nil
b) Fine aggregate
Specific gravity = 2.65
Water absorption = 1%
Free (surface) moisture = Nil
A) Targeted Mean strength for the Mixture,
Fck = f + KS
Here f = 25
K = 1.65
Standard deviation (S) = 4 (Reference: IS: 10262: 2009, Table-1)
Fck = f + KS
Fck = 25 + (1.65 x 4) = 26.6 N/mm2
Fck = 31.6 N/mm2
F) Mix Calculation :-
3
1) Volume of concrete = 1 m
2) Volume of cement = (mass of cement / S.G. of cement) x (1/1000)
= (383.2/3.15) x (1/1000)
= 0.121 m3
3) Volume of water = (mass of water / S.G. of water) x (1/1000)
= (191.6/1) x (1/1000)
= 0.191 m3
4) Volume of all in aggregate = 1- (Volume of cement+ Volume of water)
= 1- (0.121+0.191)
= 0.688 m3
5) Volume of coarse aggregate = 0.688 x 0.64 x S.G. of coarse aggregate x 1000
= 0.688 x 0.62 x 2.68 x 1000
= 1143.18 kg/m3
6) Volume of fine aggregate = 0.688 x 0.38 x S.G. of fine aggregate x 1000
= 0.688 x 0.38 x 2.65 x 1000
= 691.6 kg/m3
G) Mix:-
Cement = 383.2 kg/m3
Water = 191.6 kg/m3
Fine aggregate = 691.6.35 kg/m3
Coarse aggregate = 1143.18 kg/m3
Water cement ratio = 0.50
