APPENDIX — CONCRETE MIX INFORMATION
The following information has been extracted from actual testing laboratory reports. The purpose of this printing is only to help
create a better understanding of the importance of uniform gradation and proportioning of materials which affect pumpability of
concrete mixes. These weights and proportions illustrate that when the sieve analysis is ideal, the sand/rock ratio can be adjusted
(65% sand 35% rock) and pumpability should be excellent.

This mix designed for pumping
NOTE:
Due to the availability of well-graded sand as shown in the above sieve analysis,
this mix pumped very successfully.
