Admixture evaluation

- Mumbai region

Technical Requirements
Type of admixture Minimum water reduction required
(18% or greater in our case)

Retention time for mixes etc.


(Taking into account worst case scenarios)

Details of mix design for each area

ACC Concrete Limited Admixture evaluation for Mumbai

Aim
Conduct concrete trials on two cements (OPC & PPC) with one lower grade (major concrete grade in the area, M30) & one higher grade (M40 & above, M50) & to record the following data: Dosage of admixture Slump (Initial) & Slump retention
(For the retention desired in the area)

Air content Compressive strength


(7 & 28 days)
