Table 3. Approximate Mixing Water and Air Content Requirements For Different Slumps and Maximum Aggregate Sizes (Adapted From ACI, 2000)

The document provides information on recommended mixing water quantities and air contents for concrete mixes with different nominal maximum aggregate sizes and slumps. It includes tables showing mixing water quantities in kg/m3 for non-air-entrained and air-entrained concrete with various slumps and aggregate sizes. Another table lists recommended air contents for different concrete exposure conditions. Additional tables provide typical state DOT slump specifications and relationships between water-cement ratio and compressive strength.
