M55 With GGBS and Microsilica

This document provides a concrete mix design for a M55 grade concrete project located in Mumbai. The mix has a maximum aggregate size of 20mm, requires a workability of 200+/-25mm, and targets a mean compressive strength of 64.90MPa. The mix consists of 59% OPC 53 cement, 5% microsilica, 36% GGBS, crushed rock aggregates from Turbhe with an average specific gravity of 2.825, and 1.1% admixture dosage. The water-cement ratio is 0.25 and the mix proportion by weight is 1:1.45:1.94 for cement:fine aggregate:coarse aggregate.
