Calculation of Design Mix: Fine Aggerates Coarse Aggregates

This document provides a design mix calculation for a class C concrete to be used in a river channel improvement project in the Philippines. It details the material properties and specifications, including the sources and characteristics of aggregates, cement, water and admixtures used. The batch weight calculations per cubic meter of concrete are shown based on both estimated concrete weight and absolute volume of ingredients. The final batch weights meet the project's 21 MPa compressive strength requirement at 28 days with 6% entrained air.
