Answer Posted / rajesh satapathy

if you know the mix proportion, half of ur problem is solved.
now calculate the weight of sand per bag of cement.i.e 82 kg.
now calculate the volume of box for sand= mass/density.
tak bulk density of sand approx-1400kg/cum.
now ur free to deside the dimension once u got the volume. u can mak it two boxes for easy handling.

As per Kandal suggestions, we have implemented rolling starts on 140 (+/- 5) degrees and we kept 3 rollars to complete the rolling before falling 125 degrees and the Aggregate AIV is below 22. But When the DBM bed is being rolled 3rd high viabration, (Before 1 plain & low ,2 high Viabrations), the aggregate is getting sharp edge agg. projections are damaged. As the literature is said that, the VG-30 Grade having better control the temp. susceptibility than Penetration grade. if so we could not get this problem at site. But we are facing on site. let me know.
