| Concrete Mix Design |
It is a process of selecting suitable ingredients and determining their relative proportions with the objective of producing concrete of having certain minimum workability, strength and durability as economically as possible.
Design of a mix not only needs the knowledge of properties of all ingredients and the properties of concrete in plastic condition, but it also require wider knowledge and experience of concreting. Without experience, a person will be like a novice and inexperienced cook equipped with a recipe book. Good food and good concrete both can’t be produced without experience.
