Compressive Strength of Concrete Volumetric Base

Compressive Strength of Concrete Volumetric Base

Compressive Strength of Concrete Volumetric Base

(OP)
Dear All,

What is the maximum cylindrical compressive strength that can be achieved, basing on volumetric mix of concrete as follows.

1. 1:2:4
2. 1:1.5:3
3. 1:4:8

I would seek your expert opinion on if it is possible to achieve 3000 Psi cylinder strength using OPC and mix ratio (1:2:4) and 3750 Psi cylinder strength using OPC and mix ratio being (1:1.5:3) with out using any construction chemicals additionally.

Regards,
