Fine Aggregate: Conforming to grading Zone III of Table 4 of IS 383.
TARGET STRENGTH FOR MIX PROPORTIONING:
f’ck=fck + 1.65 s.
where
f’ck= target average compressive strength at 28 days,
fck= characteristic compressive strength at 28 days, and
s= standard deviation.
From Table 1 standard deviation, s= 4N/mm2.
Therefore, target strength= 25+1.65x4=31.6 N/mm2.
SELECTION OF WATER- CEMENT RATIO:
From Table 5 of IS 456, maximum water-cement ratio=0.42.
Based on experience, adopt water-cement ratio as 0.40.
0.40 < 0.42, hence (O.K.)
Volumetric adjustment of water content and sand percentage in different conditions as per table 44 of S.P.23
Change in condition Adjustment requiredWater content percentage Percentage sand in total
aggregate.For decreasing water cement ratio (0.6 to 0.42 ) that is 0.18
0 -3.6
For increasing compacting factor (0.8 to 0.85) that is 0.05
+1.5 0
For sand conforming to grading Zone III
0 -1.5
Total +1.5 -5.1
Therefore, Required sand content as Percentage of total aggregate by absolute
volume(35-5.1)=29.9%

SELECTION OF WATER CONTENT:
Required water content = 186+1.5%=188.79kg/cu.m.
CALCULATION OF CEMENT CONTENT:
Water- cement ratio = 0.42
Cement- content = 188.79/0.42=449.50kg./cu.m. say, 450kg/cu.m.
From Table 5 of IS 456, minimum cement content for moderate exposure condition=320 kg/cu.m.
450kg/cu.m.> 320kg/cu.m, hence, O.K.
Determination of quantity fine and coarse aggregate:
From table 41, for specified maximum size of aggregate of 20mm, the amount of entrapped air in wet concrete is 2%.
FOR COARSE AGGREGATE:
V= [W+(C/Sc) + (Ca/Sca)/(1-P) ]x1/1000.
V= 1 cubic meter-2% of volume due to entrapped air in the concrete=0.98 cu.m.
W= 188.79kg. C= 450kg. Sc=3.15, P=29.9/100=0.299, Sca=2.89, Sfa=2.64.
Therefore, 980=[188.79+(450/3.15)+(Ca/2.89)/(1-0.299)]
Ca=1311.94kg/cu.m.
FOR FINE AGGREGATE:
V=[W+(C/Sc) + (fa/Sfa)/P]x1/1000
980=[188.79+(450/3.15)+(fa/2.64)/0.299]
fa=511.67kg./cu.m.
