Concrete Mix Design: Strength (Psi) 4000 Slump (In) : 3 To 4 Max. Aggregate (In) : 0.750 Cement: Coarse Aggregate

This document provides specifications for a concrete mix design including a target compressive strength of 4000 psi, slump of 3 to 4 inches, and maximum aggregate size of 0.750 inches. It lists properties of the cement, coarse aggregate, and fine aggregate. The mix proportions specify water, cement, coarse aggregate, and fine aggregate amounts. Tables provide approximate mixing water amounts for different slumps and aggregate sizes, the relationship between water-cement ratio and compressive strength, and the volume of coarse aggregate for different aggregate sizes and fineness moduli.
