Compute the required weight of coarse aggregate per cubic

Reference no: EM13546682

A concrete mix with a 3 inch slump, water cement ratio of 0.50 and sand with fineness modulus of 2.4 contains 1700 lb/yd^3 of coarse aggregate, compute the required weight of coarse aggregate per cubic yard. to adjust the mix so as to increase the compressive strength, the water to cement ratio is reduced to 0.45 will the quantity of coarse aggregate increase,decrease or stay the same ? Explain
