thread592-250243: Concrete Mix design
Someone please tell me in which British standard i can get the charts and tables used in designing a concrete mix, for example:
CCS 4: Relationship between compressive strength and free-water/ cement ratio.
CCS 1: Approximate compressive strength (N/mm2) of concrete mixes made with a free-water/cement ratio of 0.5
CCS 2: Approximate free-water contents (kg/m3) required to give various levels of workability.
CCS 5: Estimated wet density of fully compacted concrete.
etc.
Thanks in advance.

RE: Conrete Mix Design parameters
Concrete mixes will be standard mixes given in BS5328 and is specified by its required performance in terms of a strength grade. Mix proportions for standard mixes given in table 14 are based on the use of cements of standard strength classes 42.5 or higher.
