What is the difference between nominal mix and design mix?
Answer Posted / miidangriika
Nominal Mix can be said as the mix prepared as per the
given standards in IS
Whereas Design mix is something which is prepared based on
the availabilty of the quality or type of the aggregates
(both coarse and fine) found on that locality or nearby
vicinity to meet the requirements of the strength of the
concrete.
There is no hard and fast rule for the quantity of the
materials should be either based on volume or weight.

A 16 pile group, consisting of diameter concrete piles, were cast in situ in a clayey soil whose unconfined compressive strength is 1100 psf. Each pile is 60 ft long and the pile spacing is 2.5 times the pile diameter.The water table is at the ground surface and saturated unit weight of the clay is 118 lb/cu.ft. using a factor of safety 3 and a reduction factor =0.45, compute the allowable capacity of the piles acting as individuals
