Why is strength of concrete so important in construction?
The strength of concrete depends on the mix used to make it- ratio of cement, sand, gravel and water. If the mix does not produce a concrete that is strong enough, the concrete will break.
What is the BS concrete design mix for class 20?
40 20 concrete design mix is the water to cementitious materials ratio. This is what determines the class of the design mix.
Lean concrete mixing ratio?
How to mix 4500 psi cement?
Concrete mixing proportion for M 40 concrete?
The mix proportion for M40 concrete is 1:1.65:2.92W/C ratio = 0.4The design calculation is as per IS mix design
How is concrete and mortar made?
Concrete :- a mix of cement, sand, water, and gravel. Mortar :- a mix of cement, sand, and water
Why does concrete mix with low water cement ratio resulted in hardened concrete having higher strength than those with high water cement ratio?
Why does concrete mix with low water cement ratio resulted in hardened concrete having higher strength than those with high water cement ratio?
What is Most important component to determine the strength of a concrete mix?
The concrete mix should be a 5:1 Cement to water ratio. make sure you mix thoroughly when adding water. Look up "Concrete slump test"

What is the mix ratio for blinding or mix concrete?
1:2
What is the concrete mix ratio for m25?
1:2
What is the concrete mixing ratio in m60 concrete?
cemet: sand: Agg=1:1:2 (Nominal Mix) Above answer is not as per engineering standards. For concrete mixing ration in M30 grade concrete, the mix has to be designed after testing all the materials including water in labs. When you go for higher grade of concretes the mix has to be designed , it is the water to cement ratio which has to be monitered for higher grades of concrete
Why shirinkage in concerete?
high water cement ratio , fresh concrete not mixed well , the fresh mix not compacted well ,
What is the mix ratio for concrete c40?
1:1.5:2.5
What is the proper mix ratio in concrete in home?
1:1:2
Lean concrete mixing ratio?
How to mix 4500 psi cement?
What effect has the quantity of mixing water have upon the quality of concrete?
the strength of concrete is effected by water /cement ratio as the water/cement ratio increases the strength of the concrete decreases
