An increase in aggregates size, a reduction in water-cement ratio and slump, and use of rounded aggregate and water reducing admixtures will educe the water demand. On the other hhand increased temperature, cement content, slump, water-cement ratio, aggregate angularity and a decrease in the proportion of the coarse aggregate to fine aggregate will increase water demand, ‘The quantity of maximum mixing water per unit volume of concrete may be determined from Table 2. The water content in Table 2 is for angular coarse aggrepate and for 25 to SO mm slump range. The water estimate in Table 2 can be reduced by approximately 10 kg for sub-angular aggregates, 20 kg for gravel with some crushed particles and 25 kg for rounded gravel to produce same workability. For the desired workability (other than 25 to $0 mm slump ange) the required water content may be established by trial or an increase by about 3 percent for every ‘additional 25 mm slump or alternatively by use of chemical admistures conforming to 1S 9103, Thi illustrates the need for trial batch testing of local materials as each aggregate source is different and. an influence concrete properties differently, Water ‘reducing admiatures or superplasticizing admixtures \sually decrease water content by 5 to 10 percent and Scanned with CamScanner - 0 OO ES Requirements for mix designs of concrete / ECTED ~] Table 40; DEGREE OF QUALITY CONTROL xP!
