Design the concrete mix according to the following conditions: Design Environment Pavement slab, Bozeman, Montana (cold climate) Required design strength = 3000 psi Slab thickness = 12 in. Statistical data indicate a standard deviation of compressive strength of 250 psi is expected (more than 30 samples). Only air entrainer is allowed. Available Materials Air entrainer: Manufacture specification is 0.15 fl oz/1% air/100 lb cement. Coarse aggregate: 2 in. nominal maximum size, crushed stone Bulk oven-dry specific gravity = 2.573, absorption...

The question is as follows:- Q) Design the concrete mixture for the slab 2. A reinforced slab concrete foundation is to be poured for a building. The building is to be constructed near Edmonton. The slab will be in direct contact with the soil, and the soil typically has a sulphate content of 0.3 percent by mass. The minimum rebar spacing in the slab is 100 mm. The contractor is certain that his workers can place a concrete with a...
please help with this concrete design mix problem (40 points) Design the concrete mix according to the following conditions. Perform the necessary computations to determine all ingredients in (kg) per unit volume of mix, and state resources and cite references used for each step. Summarize your design in the table at the bottom, and answer the questions beneath the table. Application Environment Area 52, airport location Idaho, (150m x 50m) runway test section Exposures: freeze-thaw, deicers Design Environment Concrete Requirements:...
Concrete is required for an interior building column in Burlington, VT. A specified compressive streng of 4,000 psi is required at 28 days. Information regarding reinforcing steel spacing and sizing willb provided in class. You have contacted the local concrete batch plant and found that they have th following materials ready Coarse Aggregates: 1 inch Nominal Maximum Size; Bulk Specific Gravity (oven-dry) 2.66; Dry- Fine Aggregates: Sand-Bulk Specific Gravity (oven-dry) = 2.64; Fineness Modulus (FM.)s 2.55; Rodded Unit Weight-102.3 lb/ft:...
Question 1. A concrete mix is to be designed for use in a 250 mm thick road pavement. The desired properties are provided below. Use the ACI method to calculate the required amounts per unit volume (/1m) of water, cement, course aggregate and fine aggregate. Slump 25 mm Average 28-day flexural strength of at least 4.5 MPa Coarse aggregate: nominal maximum size = 37.5 mm, dry-rodded weight 1600 kg/m3, specific gravity 2.68, moisture content 1.0 percent, absorption 0.5 percent Fine...
Compute the SSD mix proportions for the following mix design using the ACI method: Compressive Strength: 3,000 psi Slump: 4 inches Non-Air Entrained Concrete The materials have the following properties: | Cement: Type I, specific gravity = 3.15 | Fine Aggregate: Bulk specific gravity = 2.68; fineness modulus = 2.40 Coarse Aggregate: Maximum size aggregate = 1 inch; bulk specific gravity = 2.68; Dry-rodded unit weight = 100 lbs/ft3
5. A sample of aggregate has a moisture content of 10 percent. Its absorption capacity is 4 percent. What is the weight of free water in a 100-1b sample of this aggregate? How is fineness modulus measured and what does it represent The specific gravity and bulk density of an aggregate are 2.6 and 95 pcf respectively. Find the loose (bulk) volume of a 190-lb sample. A sample of fine aggregate with a specific gravity of 2.6 has a bulk...
What would be the maximum aggregate size used for the given mixture properties by using ACI Method of Mix Design. 28-day specified concrete strength is 3b Mpa, standard deviation is choosen as 3.a Mpa and it is required that no more than 1 test result in 200 will fall below the specified strength.

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
