The following is a design guide for selecting proportions for initial concrete mix design for normal weight concrete. This guide references ACI 211.1-91 (Reapproved 2009),

We’ll work through the mix design steps listed in the previous slide using an example for a typical concrete mix for a non-air-entrained concrete. The choice of slump determines the workability …

The process of determining required and specifiable char-acteristics of a concrete mixture is called mix design. Characteristics can include: (1) fresh concrete properties; (2) required …

Mix proportioning is generally carried out for a particular compressive strength requirements ensuring that fresh concrete of the mix proportioned to possess adequate workability for …
