Abstract: A system for developing a concrete mix design that allows a user to input a set of initial design parameters (such as required average compressive strength) for the design, and to specify various design criteria (such as the cementitious materials, aggregates, and admixtures to be used in the design) using a series of input screens. The system then displays several key initial design parameters and design criteria within a design criteria and parameters summary that is displayed on a single “worksheet screen.” One or more of these criteria and/or parameters is displayed in user-modifiable format. Upon pressing a “calculate” button, the system displays an initial set of design specifications that meet the specified design parameters and criteria. The user may then modify any of the user-modifiable design parameters and criteria. In response such modifications, the system immediately generates an updated set of specifications that satisfies the revised criteria.
