1.CEMENT CONCRETE MIX DESIGN
Concrete has four component system, that is, cement, water, coarse aggregate and fine aggregate
Judicious combination of - fly ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag, silica fume, rice husk ash, metakaoline, superplasticizer, Plasticizers AEA, Retarder and fibres
Need has been further augmented to proportion concrete mixes in different specification including IS:456-2000.

2.GENERAL- Concrete Mix
Satisfactory quality both in its fresh and hardened
states
Trial mixes using certain established relationships
Basic principles Abram’s law for strength
Proportioning of concrete mixes can be regarded as procedure set to proportion the economical concrete mix for specified durability and grade for required site conditions.

3.Following major modifications
Adoption of any other methods of proportioning
Applicability of the guidelines has been specified for M25 above M50 (IRC SP-76-2008)
Selection of W/C ratio, water content & estimation of coarse/ fine aggregate content have been modified
Illustrative examples using fly ash and silica fume
ACI 211.1 (Re-approved 1997) ‘Standard practice for selecting proportions for normal, heavyweight, and mass concrete’,
IS:10262 First Revision (Draft).

4. SCOPE
Proportioning to achieve specified characteristics at specified age, workability of fresh concrete and durability requirements
Standard is applicable for M25 to M50 grades of concrete normally used for concrete pavements and
Above M50 for special applications like white topping as per IRC SP-76-2007.
