Committee Mission: Develop and report information on the proportioning of concrete mixtures.

Goals: 1) Revise and ballot "Standard Practice for Selecting Proportions for Normal Weight Concrete" (ACI 211.1-91); Revise documents to include heavyweight concrete, submittal of concrete proportions, laboratory tests, and assessing aggregate gradation for proportioning.

Chair: Ezgi Wilson
