Concrete mix ratio of 1:3:3 – On mixing 1 part cement, 3 parts sand with 3 parts aggregate produces concrete with a compressive strength of 3000 psi. On mixing water with the three ingredients, a paste is formed that binds them together till the concrete mix gets hardened. The strength concrete is inversely proportional to the water/cement ratio.
Portland Cement. QUIKRETE® Portland Cement (No. 1124) complies with current ASTM C150 or ASTM C595 Specifications as well as Federal Specifications for portland cement. Can be mixed with aggregate and other ingredients to make concrete mix, mortar mix, and base coat stucco. Availability of the different types varies by region.
The proposed model is found to be able to provide a satisfactory description of the impact of coarse RCA on the 28-day compressive strength of Portland cement concrete. The scope of application of this model is for concrete having strength class from C20/25 to C80/95, made with coarse RCA having oven-dried particle density from 2200 …

ENVIRONMENT. Portland's primary Quarry situated in Durbanville, Cape Town is nestled between the Diep River and Tygerberg mountain range and surrounded by mostly farm land. The river forms the natural border of the north-western part of the Quarry, providing a bio-diverse ecosystem with an impressive variety of fauna and flora on its banks.
According to a 2004 FHWA study, 38 states recycle concrete as an aggregate base; 11 recycle it into new portland cement concrete. The states that do use recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) in new concrete …
The second test track had 3% of Portland cement and the third track had 3% of hydrated lime. The test track deflections were measured using FWD over a specific time (6, 12, and 18 months after construction); in situ resilient moduli were subsequently determined using back-calculation and compared with laboratory test results.

Recycling of old concrete pavement has become an important issue as more concrete pavement reaches the end of its functional and structural life. Currently, economic …
Because of the unique physical and chemical characteristics of steel slag, steel slag aggregate (SSA) has been recycled into Portland cement concrete as a substitution for natural aggregates as a sustainable and low impact design solution by …
This study demonstrates that using existing industrial-scale equipment it is possible to recycle Portland cement into Portland cement in an all-electric process.
Mica is very effective in reducing strength (15% reduction in 28-d f'c with 5% mica). Gypsum and iron pyrites are mainly responsible for expansion of concrete. 6. Alkali- Aggregate Reactions. Reaction between alkali from cement and silica or carbonate from aggregate is called "alkali- aggregate reaction".

Portland cement is the most common type of cement used in concrete mixtures. It's made from a combination of limestone, clay, and other materials. The amount of Portland cement needed for a concrete project depends on the desired mix ratio (e.g., 1:2:3 for cement:sand:aggregate). To calculate the amount of cement required, first …
The ratio defines the volume of aggregate (sand) to that of the cementitious materials in a given mortar sample. (Cementitious materials include portland and blended cements, masonry, mortar cement, and lime.) By comparing the values of the aggregate ratio from samples taken during construction, producers, architects, and mason …
Ordinary Portland cement type I, fly ash, crushed limestone, natural sand, ceramic waste aggregate, and water of drinking quality were used in this study.
