Concrete Mix Proportioning
Concept of Mix Design with and without admixtures, variables in proportioning and Exposure conditions, Selection criteria of ingredients used for mix design, Procedure of mix proportioning. Numerical Examples of Mix Proportioning using IS-10262:2019.
Concrete Technology
Concrete is a construction material composed of cement, fine aggregates (sand) and coarse aggregates mixed with water which hardens with time. Portland cement is the commonly used type of cement for production of concrete. Concrete technology deals with study of properties of concrete and its practical applications.
The main items we'll focus on in this course are:
Cement - Types & Roles of Different Ingredients
Manufacturing of Cement - Dry & Wet Process
The influence of admixtures and aggregates
Properties of fresh and hardened concrete
Work ability, settlement, bleeding and Segregation
Production of Concrete
