Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have conducted a trial batch that resulted in a slump of 20 mm, but the target was 50 mm. Outline the steps you would take to adjust the mix.

💡 Hint: Think about what directly affects workability.

Question 2

After trial batching, your compressive strength results show only 18 MPa compared to a target of 25 MPa. Discuss potential implications for the project.

💡 Hint: Identify factors affecting strength and the impacts on project execution.
