Answer / arjun
Design Mix Proportion includes cement, sand, aggregate,
water and admixtures for getting high compressive strength
of concrete with suitable proportions. generally in
different locations the properties of these materials is
different so aviod the genaralproportion like 1:2:4 or
1:1.5:3 various samples are taken randomly upto getting
good results mix design can be done.
design mix normally used in all works like Mass Concreting,
Concrete PAvements & Bridges, Dams, Flyovers and huge
structures

Answer / rajesh bhowmick
For Design Mix there is no proportion. Volume mix does. We have to calculate the weight of the cement, fine and coarse aggregate to achieve the target strength.
