Actually, the Bolomey equation is a fit equation. You should certainly be able to obtain the parameters of a and b through tests.

Naser Kabashi

The parameters a &b results from the tests will be used , but we didn't recomand for very low W/C ratio

Miren Etxeberria

Fuller method is probably better For very dry mixtures

It may be helpful.

I still prefer you get your own parameters
