Water required = 138.14 kg/m3
Percentage of entrapped air = 0.50 %
W/C ratio, theoritical = 0.60
S/A ratio, theoritical = 32.00 %
Cement Content = 230.23 kg/m3
Vol. of gravel per cum. concrete (bulk) = 91.06 % 81.00 %
Weight of Gravel required, --->TRIAL = 1,319.00 kg 1,317.18 kg
Solid volume of Cement = 0.07 m3/m3
Volume of Water = 0.14 m3/m3
Solid volume of Gravel = 0.53 m3/m3
Volume of air = 0.01 m3/m3
Total vol. of Cement+Water+Gravel+Air = 0.75 m3/m3
