MIX DESIGN OF M45 AND M50 AT SITE (QAQC LAB)

 


Reference Code:

  • IS:10262-2019
  • MORTH 5th Rev.
  • IS:383-2016
  • IS:2386
  • IS:4031
  • IS:269-2015
  • IS:456-2000
  • IS:9103
  • IS:1199
  • IS:516
Some Important Points during Trial
  • Combined grading and other property of CA & FA must be within limit as per IS 383
  • Cement not more then 2 month old for batter results.
  • Concrete Temp. within  (-5) °C to 40 °C
**** Note: In this trial I used OPC 43 CEMENT and achieved the target strength for M45 and almost near to M50 target strength.
If we replace the OPC 43 cement with OPC 53 cement then the target strength of M50 can be achieved.

    This article provides clear insights into the mix design process for M45 and M50 grades, which is incredibly valuable for on-site applications. It's always helpful to see detailed practical examples in engineering. Just like construction relies on strong foundations, authors benefit from the top book publishing services in UK to ensure their work is professionally developed and presented.

DESIGN MIX OF DENSE BITUMINOUS MACADAM (DBM) GRADING-1 BY MODIFIED MARSHALL METHOD

  DBM (Dense Bituminous Macadam) is a part of  flexible pavement and the work shall consist of construction of single or multiple layers on wmm or sub base. The thickness of single layer shall be 50mm to 100mm as per MORTH specification. According to MORTH 5th rev. Table 500-10 , There are Two grading are specified for DBM construction (1) DBM Grading-1  Grading-1 is suitable for layer thickness of 75 mm to 100 mm and 37.5mm nominal size of aggregate shall be used. Bitumen content by mass of total mix = 4 % minimum (2) DBM Grading-2 Grading-2 is suitable for layer thickness of 50 mm to 75 mm and 26.5 mm nominal size of aggregate shall be used. Bitumen content by mass of total mix = 4.5 % minimum Reference code and specification MORTH 5th Rev.
