Abstract:
The primary objective of designing concrete trial mixes is the selection of suitable ingredients and determining a combination that satisfies the requirements of economy and performance. Due to the variabliity in the characteristics of aggregates, the process of arriving at the right combination of cement, aggregates, mixing water, and admixtures is not entirely a scientific procedure.
