Items in italics are optional limiting values that may be specified (see Section 7).
Concrete strength is expressed in the units N/mm2. 1 N/mm2 = 1 MN/ m2 = 1 MPa. (N = newton; Pa = pascal.)
The internationally known term ‘relative density’ used here is synonymous with ‘specific gravity’ and is the ratio of the mass of a given volume of substance to the mass of an equal volume of water.
SSD = based on the saturated surface-dry condition.
