As the surface area of the aggregate increases the more water will be needed to maintain a given slump. Coarser Surface Texture Particle Shape Particle Size Distribution As the air content increases, the strength of the Concrete It s a calculation: w/c ~ lbs. of water / lbs. of cement w/cm~ lbs. of water / lbs. of cementitious Water / Cementitious RatioOften when w/c is discussed its really w/cmthat is intended as the reference=Water cement cement ratioWater needs to be drinkable or meet ASTM expressed as decimal45 lbs of water100 lbs of cement1/22/201435 Specific Gravity The relative density of a material compared to water The ratio of a material s weight to the weight of an equalTerminology The ratio of a material s weight to the weight of an equal volume of water Bulk specific gravity (SSD): Used to determine the solid volume (absolute volume) of a material going into Concrete It is determined by submerging the material in water for ygg24 hours
