* Adding chemicals are optional factor since the mixing shall be carried out on the site using 1 bagger mixer.
Should it will be required, addition shall not be more than 2% of the equivalent weight of cementitious material
of the design. Moreover, the chemical to be used shall be a napthalene base.
* Effect of adding chemical material:
An initial trial mix shall be carried out in order to arrived at a desired workabilitywhen mortar/grout is concerned
to fill the CHB cells. Note that 110 5% flow of slump will not be observed when chemical is to be consider.
* Box dimesion is based on a 1 cu.ft. volume (i.e. 30x30x30cm) = 0.027 m3
