In order to figure out the best material table top and the legs different concrete mixes will be tried. The original mix percentages have been altered to make the mix stronger, this includes bring down the amount of sand and increasing the amount of fly ash. As well as this new mix being tested, another mix was made to the same percentages but with the inclusion of fibres to strengthen the concrete and reduce the chance of shrinkage or cracking. A red pigment was placed in a third mix to see if the colour would work better for the wood. As well as all of these three new mixes tried, all three were tried in a smaller thickness as well which is more realistic to the depth of the table top.
