    This document outlines the trial mix procedure for a grout mix from ASDEC Builders Corporation. It details the materials, equipment, design mix ratio, and mixing and testing procedures. The grout mix uses a ratio of 1 bag of Portland cement to 18 liters of water. Samples are cast in 3" x 3" molds and cured for 24 hours before demolded. Twelve samples will be tested after 7, 14, and 28 days to verify the grout achieves a strength of 3000 psi after 28 days. The passing results will be used for on-site application and as the design mixture basis.
