However, there is limited literature available on the use of fine to coarse aggregate ratios for a mixed design for FRC. The maximal fine to coarse aggregate ratio described in ACI 544.3R-2008 is 0.6. Coarse and fine aggregate comprises almost up to 75% of total concrete volume, therefore, balancing the usage of FA and CA plays vital …

In nominal mixed concrete, the proportion of mixing concrete ingredients is fixed and recommended by standard codes. For M 15 grade of concrete mix, the ratio is 1:2:4, which means 1 part cement, 2 part sand, and 4 part aggregate used to prepare concrete mix with water. If you are using M 20 grade of concrete then you have to use a mix ratio of ...

Raw material properties greatly influence the workability of self-compacting concrete (SCC). This paper explored a robust approach to realize the mix design of SCC. A theoretical framework, which combines the excess layer composition model and rheology-based workability criteria, was proposed to analyze the fresh behaviors of the concrete.

Aggregate is classified as two different types, coarse and fine. Coarse aggregate is usually greater than 4.75 mm (retained on a No. 4 sieve), while fine aggregate is less than 4.75 mm (passing the No. 4 sieve). The compressive aggregate strength is an important factor in the selection of aggregate.
