parameters of aggregate,sand and water accurately ....n
also to design higher grade of concrete ...
....incase of nominal mis method(say),M15 means 15mpa
comp.srength on 28 days using 1:2:4 proportions without
considering various conditions of conareting
materials ...the same will be rectified in design mix .
simply nominal mix is blind technique where as design mix
