RECOMMENDATION
From the compressive strength of concrete test results, it is observed that Tdays compressive strength
of Trial Mix -II is 21.9MPa and 28 days compressive strength is 33.5 MPa which is greater than
target mean strength 31.6 MPa. Thus Trial Mix-II is recommended for M-25 grade of concrete. The
actual quantities of diflerent materials required for the mix is

Remarks
I The design is subjected to change in case of change in quality or gradation of material used in
above design
2 The desgn is based on saturated surface dry condition , while computing the requirenment of
mixing water, allowance must be made for free ( surface) moisture content of aggregate or for
water absorption of dry aggregates. Necessary adjustment shall be made in the mass of aggregate
for both mass of free water content or mass of water absorption.
3 In case of volume batching the bulkage of sand , if any must be corrected.
4 Cement wastage is not included in trial mix.
5 Target mean strength is for design purposes the field results should conform IS 456-2000
