Aggregate moisture and grading, cement type, mineral additions, water source and admixture compatibility affect mix design. Plant capacity and storage arrangements also determine continuity.
Before sourcing, share current mixes, laboratory results and daily or monthly usage forecasts. Define samples, trial mixes and acceptance criteria for alternate sources.
What to include in the inquiry
- Current mix, target class and exposure conditions
- Usage forecast and plant storage capacity
- Input analyses and trial-mix requirements
- Lot schedule, sampling and acceptance tolerances
