The concrete ticket below shows a 3500 psi concrete mix for 10.5 yards of concrete. The ticket breaks down the weights of the amount of cement, stone, and sand used to make the 3500 psi concrete. The actual weights used to make this 10.5 yard load were: 1. Cement = 5,805 pounds. 2.
GET A QUOTEPumpable concrete mixes simplify concrete application by having it applied through a lubricated pumping system, and exits (with minimal friction) through a focussed plug, top generate pressure. The ideal mix of concrete for pumping needs to be mixed to facilitate reliable pumping without undermining the integrity of the concrete itself.
GET A QUOTEFig. 61Effect of aggregate shapes on mix design Surface area = 44 cm2 4.3. Designing a pumpable mix When ordering concrete for a pumped pour, the readymixed concrete supplier will invariably need to know if the concrete is to be pumped, as it is essential that the mix design takes this into account.
GET A QUOTEJan 01, 1976 · A pumpable concrete mix must be able to maintain its consistency in pump and pipeline. Where rapid changes occur in cross-section of the pump or pipe, 2 or at high rates of placing pump pressures as high as 5MPa (5 MN/m ) may be needed, with corresponding severe pressure gradients in the concrete.
GET A QUOTESlump is a measure of concrete consistency or fluidity. Consistency is the ability of freshly mixed concrete to flow. For given proportions of cement and aggregates (without admixtures), the higher the slump, the wetter the mix. Four-inch (4") slump is very common with normal weight concrete and is a good average slump for pumping.
