D- Determination of Target Mean Strength

The Cylinderical targeat average mean compressive strength at 28 day's is given bythe following
Equation
Targeat mean strength (T s)=f ck + (Y*S)

Where
Ts=Targeat mean strenght
f ck=Characteristic Compressive Strength at 28 day's - 15 N/mm2
s=standared Deviation - 4.5
y=statical value (from contr. Speci.6404(111) - 1.64
So from the above Equation Cylinderical targeat mean strength - 27.2N/mm2
The Equivalent Cubical targeat mean strength=1.27(27.2) - 34.00N/mm2

E- Determination of Dry Mass of Coarse Aggregate
The quality of coarse aggregate estimated from ACI211-1-81 Table A-1.5.3.6 for a finesse
modules of 3.00and 19 mm Nominal maximum size of coarse aggregate the table indicates that
0.64 m3 of coarse on dry- Rodd basics.Therefore the required dry mass for coarse aggregate
calculated as
Coarse Aggregate Mass = 0.6 * 1578 947 kg

Cement Content Trials = 320 kg
Mixing Water = 190 kg
NB:- Based On Table A1.5.3.6 For less workebl concrete such as reqired for concrete pevement
constraction they may be increased about 10 %
10% * 946.8 95 kg
947 + 95 1041 kg
F-Determinatiomn of mixing water

(Exciuding absorption of aggregate)
From Water / Cement ratio = 0.59

Mixing Water = 190 kg/m3
G- Trial Mixes Compautation

Atrial mix conducted with constant water cement ratio of 0.5 and 380kg of cement content
targeting to the required strength and workability. The computation result summarized below
G1-Detrmination of Dry Mass of Coarse Aggregate
From ACI 211-1-81Table A1.5.3.7.1 the mass of cubic meter of non air-entrained made with
aggregate having a maximum size of 20mm is estimated to be 2345kg/m 3 by interpolation
The Mass already known are:
Water = 190 kg/m3
Cement = 320 kg/m3
Coarse Aggregate = 1041 kg/m3
Total = 1551.2 kg/m3
