    The document provides specifications for structural concrete including gradation limits for aggregates in Table 2C and requirements for water and mineral admixtures used in concrete. Table 2C lists the particle size distribution limits in percent passing for two aggregate gradations labeled A and B. The document also specifies that water must be potable and lists limits on chemical contents if non-potable water is used. Mineral admixtures including silica fume and fly ash must meet ASTM specifications.
