BRE Mix Design Example 2 . . . . CALCULATE MIX PROPORTIONS OF TRIAL MIX 0.08 MB FOR THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: Characteristic compressive strength (fe), 25 N/mmat 28 days Portland cement class 42.5 Slump required, 30-60 mm Maximum aggregate size, 40 mm (fine and coarse uncrushed). Use 1:1.5:3 proportions for 10:20:40 mm aggregate combination. Maximum free-water/cement ratio, 0.50 Minimum cement content, 290 kg/m3 There are no previous control data but a margin of 10 N/mm2 is specified. Aggregate relative density = 2.5 Fine aggregate, 90% passing a 600 m sieve . .
