Concrete Design & Production

Concrete Design & Production. Concrete is a mixture of two components: aggregates and paste. The paste, comprised of cement and water, binds the aggregates (usually sand and gravel or crushed stone) into a rocklike mass as the paste hardens.

Designing and Proportioning Normal Concrete Mixtures

For a severe freeze-thaw exposure, Table 9-5 recommends a target air content of 6.0% for a 25-mm aggregate. Therefore, design the mix for 5% to 8% air and use 8% (or the maximum allowable) for batch proportions. The trial-batch air content must be within ±0.5 percentage points of the maximum allowable air content.

Manufactured Sand for Construction

by Prasad ·. Manufactured sand (M-Sand) is used as a substitution to the river sand in construction. River sand is becoming a decaying resource in some parts of the year due to the lack of rains to collect the sand on the river beds. Manufactured sand can be considered as a by-product of the process of producing coarse aggregates.

Manufactured Sand vs. Natural Sand

The choice of fine aggregate, whether it is manufactured or natural sand, can greatly impact the fresh concrete properties of a mixture such as the workability, pumpability, and finishability. Natural sand has an ideal shape for use as fine aggregate in concrete. The natural sand particles are well-rounded and are usually nearly spherical.
