You are a construction engineer working on a large concrete foundation project, involving the placement of over 500,000 c.y of concrete. The construction site is adjacent to a salt-water source (bay) & it is decided to set up a concrete batch plant on site. The project schedule shows that the various concrete pours are to take place from April to September. • What considerations would you make with regards to cement type, aggregate, water quality, and admixtures? Explain your considerations in detail.
