Concrete mix design method according to referential structure and the aggregates specific surface area

Abstract EN

This research presents new procedures to calculate the aggregates weight and the water requirement to realize a controlled concrete mixing design, where the aggregates proportion is defined by numerical method according to referential curve draw as referring to the proposed fine aggregate ratio and the required water will be calculated as referring to the aggregates surface area.

The results showed the facility and the reliability of the proposed design procedures.
