Design Strength = 2000 psi

SN MATERIALSpecific Gravity

1. Cement 250 kg 3.15 1 bag 1 bag2. Water 145 L 1.0 29 Liters 29 Liters3. Aggregates, (max. 3/8") 775 kg 2.60 2.21 box 155 kg4. Sand 1,186 kg 2.65 3.31 box 237 kg5. Air, 3% - 0.0013 - 6. *Chemical - -

Grout Density = 2,356 kg/m3 (Theoretical)

Notes:a. Grout as per ASTM C476 requirementsb. Flow of 110 ±5%c. Air percentage not more than 8% for non-air entraining cementd. Minimun cement content as per Aramco specifications = 250 kg for non-structural concretee. Water-Cement ratio of not more than 0.60 conforming to Aramco non-structural concretef. Grout strength of not less than 2000 psig. Mixing time time of not more than 2 1/2 hour upon addition of water

* Adding chemicals are optional factor since the mixing shall be carried out on the site using 1 bagger mixer.Should it will be required, addition shall not be more than 2% of the equivalent weight of cementitious materialof the design. Moreover, the chemical to be used shall be a napthalene base.

* Effect of adding chemical material:An initial trial mix shall be carried out in order to arrived at a desired workabilitywhen mortar/grout is concernedto fill the CHB cells. Note that 110 ±5% flow of slump will not be observed when chemical is to be consider.

* Box dimesion is based on a 1 cu.ft. volume (i.e. 30x30x30cm) = 0.027 m3
