Scope of Firstmix

Firstmix only deals with concrete with fine and coarse aggregates that approximate to the requirements of to BS 882 (see References 5) and cannot deal with aggregates, which have a larger maximum size than 40mm (1.5 in).

Firstmiix does not deal explicitly with admixtures, with the exception of air-entraining agents and water-reducing agents.

Special materials and special types of concrete such as flowing or pumped concrete are not dealt with.
