Q5/ Design with (ACI-code) a mix with a mean 28-day compressive strength of (35MP) and
a slump of 45 mm, ordinary cement being used. The maximum size of well-shaped, angular
aggregate is 20 mm, its bulk density is 1600 kg/m3, and its specific gravity is 2.64. The
available fine aggregate has a fineness modulus of 2.60 and a specific gravity of 2.58. No-air
entrainment is required. The percentage absorption of fine aggregate is 1.5%, and coarse
aggregate 2.5%
