Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a set of aggregates with a size distribution and a known bulk density, calculate the required volume of paste needed to fill voids in a concrete mix.

💡 Hint: Consider how void spaces determine paste requirements.

Question 2

Explain what adjustments you would make to a mix if the bulk density was found to be lower than expected.

💡 Hint: Think about how density impacts material requirements.
