Estimated Water Content for 75 mm Slump = 208+(75-50)/25*3/100*208 = 214.24 kg of water per Cum of
Cement.
For addition of 0.8% Superplasticizer, water reduction = 13% of 214.24 = 27.85 kg of water per Cum of
Cement.
Final Water Content for 75 mm Slump = 214.24 - 27.85 = 186.39 kg of water per Cum of Cement
6 Estimation of Proportion of Volume of Coarse & Fine Aggregate (CA & FA)
From Table 5 of IS-10262-2019 for W/C Ratio 0.5 and 10mm Nominal Maximum Size of Aggregate and
Zone-II Sand, Volume of Coarse aggregate per Total Volume of Aggregate = 0.50
But, the adopted W/C Ratio is 0.48
Now, from Cl. 5.5.1 of IS-10262-2019, we know that the Volume of CA per Total Volume of Aggregate is
increased by 0.01 for decrease in W/C Ratio by every 0.05
So, the Corrected Volume of CA per total Volume of Aggregate = 0.50 + 0.01 x (0.50-0.48)/0.05 = 0.504
Hence Adopted Ratio of CA = 0.55.

Cement : FA : CA = 388.31 : 804.36 : 1060.72 = 1: 2.07 : 2.73 and the W/C = 0.48
Water Correction applied to dry Aggregates (To make SSD Conditioned):
For Sand (FA) = 804.36 x 1% = 8.0436 kg
For Stone Chips (CA) = 1060.72 x 0.5% = 5.3036 kg
Extra Water Requirement = 8.044 + 5.3036 = 13.348 kg
Estimated Water Content for 75 mm Slump = 208+(75-50)/25*3/100*208 = 214.24 kg of water per Cum of
Cement.
For addition of 0.6% Superplasticizer, water reduction = 13% of 214.24 = 27.85 kg of water per Cum of
Cement.
Final Water Content for 75 mm Slump = 214.24 - 27.8512 = 186.39 kg of water per Cum of Cement
6 Estimation of Proportion of Volume of Coarse & Fine Aggregate (CA & FA)
From Table 5 of IS-10262-2019 for W/C Ratio 0.5 and 10mm Nominal Maximum Size of Aggregate and
Zone-II Sand, Volume of Coarse aggregate per Total Volume of Aggregate = 0.50
But, the adopted W/C Ratio is 0.38
Now, from Cl. 5.5.1 of IS-10262-2019, we know that the Volume of CA per Total Volume of Aggregate is
increased by 0.01 for decrease in W/C Ratio by every 0.05
So, the Corrected Volume of CA per total Volume of Aggregate = 0.50 + 0.01 x (0.50-0.38)/0.05 = 0.524
Hence Adopted Ratio of CA = 0.55.
