APPENDIX C-Continued 



The adjusted basic batch weights per cubic yard 

 of concrete are 



Water (net mixing) 



Cement 



Coarse aggregate (dry) 



Fine aggregate (dry) 



255 lb 

 510 lb 

 1898 lb 

 1208 lb 



Admixture dosage must be reduced to provide 

 the desired air content. 



6.3.10 Adjustments of proportions determined 

 on an absolute volume basis would follow the 

 procedure outlined in Paragraph 6.2.10 which will 

 not be repeated for this example.
