We require a mix with a mean 28-day compressive strength of 26.5 MPa) the size of the member and the spacing of the reinforcement require a slump of 50 mm and a e maximum size of aggregate of 20 mm. Portland cement type I is used with specific gravity of 3.15, dry-rodded unit weight of coarse aggregate 1700 kg/m and bulk specific gravity (SSD) of 2.55. The fineness modulus of fine aggregate is 2.8 and bulk specific gravity (SSD) of 2.5. No air entrainment is required. Neglect water absorption and moisture content of both aggregates. The aggregates conform to the ASTM C33-84 requirements for grading. Estimate the quantity of (cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and water) for 1m³ concrete.
