Notes:
1. F.A.= Fine Aggregates, C.A.= Coarse Aggregates
2. The table is based on assumption that the voids in sand and crushed stone are 40 and
45 percent respectively.
3. Air content of 1 percent has been assumed.
4. For gravel aggregates decrease cement by 5 percent, increase sand by 2 percent and
coarse aggregate in proportion to fine aggregate in mix.
4. No allowance has been made in the table for bulking of sand and wastage./>
