You are the engineer responsible for designing a concrete mixture that is intended to be used for concrete piles of the substructure of the Al Faw port. The ACI Committee 201 has recommendations regarding the durability of the concrete. Based on these recommendations, what is the minimum compressive strength in MPa for these piles if the ACI 211.1 procedure is to be considered? Note that the concrete mixture does not have air-entraining admixtures. Write down your answer only.
