4.1 MIX DESIGN FOR M30 GRADE CONCRETE (NOMINAL MIX)
Mix design for M30 grade concrete by Indian Standard recommended method of
concrete mix design as per design code IS: 10262-1982

But as per IS code the maximum cement content should be 450 Kg/m3.
Therefore, the cement content = 450 Kg/m3
For the specified maximum size of aggregate, the amount of entrapped air is in the wet
concrete is 2%. Taking this into account,
V= [W+(C/Sc) + (1/P) (fa/Sfa)] (1/1000)
Fine Aggregate

From fig.1 of IS: 10262-1982, for the free water cement ratio for the target mean
strength of 36.6 N/mm2 is 0.45
e) Estimation of entrapped air
From Table 3 of IS10262-1982, for the specified maximum size of aggregate of 20mm,
the amount of entrapped air in the wet concrete is 2 percent.
f) Selection of Water and Sand content
For 10mm maximum size aggregate, Sand conforming to grading zone III
Water content per cubic meter of concrete
= 250 Kg
= 35%
=35-3.5
=31.5%
= 0.45
= 250 lit
= (250/ 0.45)
= 555.5 Kg/m3
But as per IS code the maximum cement content should be 450 Kg/m3.
Therefore, the cement content = 450 Kg/m3
For the specified maximum size of aggregate, the amount of entrapped air is in the wet
concrete is 2%. Taking this into account,
V= [W+(C/Sc) + (1/P) (fa/Sfa)] (1/1000)
Fine Aggregate
0.98 = [250+ (555.5/3.15) + (1/0.315) (fa/2.60)] (1/1000)
fa = 547.396 kg/m3
Coarse Aggregate

h) Determination of fine & coarse aggregate Contents
For the specified maximum size of aggregate, the amount of entrapped air is in the wet
concrete is 2%. Taking this into account,
V= [W+(C/Sc) + (1/P) (fa/Sfa)] (1/1000)
Fine Aggregate
0.98 = [250+ (0.315/3.15) + (1/0.315) (fa/2.68)] (1/1000)
