STEPS IN MIX DESIGN

Determine slump flow performance requirements

Select coarse aggregate and proportion

(12mm and 20mm)

Fixing the Aggregate Volume

For every 1000 mm3 (volume of concrete):
Normally 2% air content is assumed for SCC = 20 mm 3
Net concrete volume =1000-20= 980 mm3
980 mm3 = volume of paste + Volume of aggregate (5)
Vol of aggregate =980 - Volume of paste

Estimate the required cementitious content and water;
