The following is the concrete mix
design used in the laboratory to cast concrete specimens used for the shear and
bond tests as shown in our report dated March 7, 1985.

PROCEDURE
USED: A. Shear Tests Specimens were cast in 6" x 6" x
20" beam molds and when sufficiently aged were tested in shear.
B.
Bond Tests In Test No. 1, No. 5 rebars were imbedded in concrete and
when sufficiently aged were tested in tension.
Specimens for Test No. 2 were Cast in
dimensions according to ASTM C-321-64, (Bond Strength of ChemicalResistant
Mortar) and when sufficiently aged were tested on a special test head as shown
in Figure 4 of ASTM C-321.
NOTE:When evaluating the test results,
consideration should be given to the comparison between small size laboratory
specimens and large concrete field members. Also, the laboratory specimens
received full coats of slurry and powder over entire surfaces. It is possible
that the laboratory specimens were subjected to more stringent procedures than
may be found in the field.
