C.DESIGN COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH FOR MIX
                                                          f'ck   =   fck  +  1.65*s
                                                          where
                                                         f'ck   =  target mean compressive strength at 28 days
                                                         fck   = characteristic compressive at 28 days
                                                         s      = Standard deviation
                                                                = 4.00
                                                        f'ck     =  26.6  N/mm2

D.SELECTION OF WATER-CEMENT RATIO
   Permissible Max. W-C Ratio          = 0.55
                                 W-C Ratio          =  0.55    hence   Ok
                 ADOPT   W-C ratio          =  0.50

E.SELECTION OF WATER CONTENT  
Approximate water content / Cum without Plasticizer  =    186.00 kg
Correction for slump = 0.00 kg
Correction for shape & type of aggregate   =  0.00 kg
Net. Max. water content= 186.00 kg
Net. Arrived water content.=  186.00 kg

F.CALCULATION OF CEMENT CONTENT
Adopted    W-c Ratio = 0.50
Net. Arrived water content = 186.00 kg
Cement content =372.00 kg
Minimum cement content as per IS 456-2000 = 300.00 kg
maximum cement content as per IS 456-2000 = 450.00 kg
Hence ok
Adopt Cement Content = 372.00 kg

G.CALCULATION OF VCA, VFA
volume of ca/ total Agg volume for w-c ratio = 0.50  =62.00%
correction factor =0.00%
net. volume of ca / total agg volume for w-c ratio 0.5 =62.00%
correction for shape & type of aggregate =0.00%
Correction for method of placing =0.00%
adopt net. volume of ca/ total agg. volume =62.00%
volume of ca Vca =62.00%
volume of fa Vfa = 38.00%

RESULT
as per above results, desired strength of cement concrete m-20 grade cubed mould of 7 days have been achieved as 22.59 N/mm2. Therefore , above rcc mix design may be adopted as provisional design mix design for above mentioned rcc work tilll28 day's compressive strength is checked.                                                         
There fore as per above trial results, results of sample 2 has been consider as optimum and suitable.

PRECAUTIONS
§  Safety shoes should be used at the time of testing.

§  Before testing, CTM machine should be properly checked
