IS: 10262:2019 Guidelines Keeping in View The Recommended Mix Standard Deviations and Targeted Mean Strength
The method of concrete mix design consists of selection of optimum proportions of water, cement, fine & coarse
aggregate and admixture of produce concrete of specified properties most economically. The proportion of concrete
mix is obtained by experimentally evolved relationship between the factors in the choice of mix design. It provides
reasonably accurate guide to arrive at optimum proportions of ingredients. The final mix proportions are obtained on
the basis of trial mixes. The mix design has been carried out as per stipulation of India standards specification
IS: 10262:2019 guidelines keeping in view the recommended mix standard deviations and targeted mean strength.
The Recommended mix proportions should be tested at site for their workability & strength before it is adopted.
1. Design Stipulations:

Remarks: -
1. Trial-3 is recommended for the mix proportion at the Site for their Workability and Strength.
2. This mix design has been done at saturated condition.
3. Your material brought at site is dry or wet, than water can be decreased or increased according water Absorption.
4. Tap Water of our lab has been used, if water not supply, water should be pure and clean in concrete mix
As Per IS: 456-2000 & IS: 3025
5. Admixture is used.
