The M15 grade of concrete typically has a mix ratio of 1:2:4, which means 1 part cement, 2 parts sand, and 4 parts coarse aggregate. The cement content for M15 concrete is generally around 240 kg per cubic meter of concrete. However, this can vary based on specific project requirements and local practices. Always consult relevant standards and guidelines for precise specifications.

The minimum cement content in reinforced cement concrete (RCC) typically varies depending on the application and environmental conditions, but it is generally around 300 kg/m³ for structural applications. In aggressive environments, this value may need to be increased to ensure durability and strength. For specific projects, local building codes and standards should always be consulted to determine the precise minimum requirements.
The ratios of cement to sand to aggregate for the different grades of concrete are as follows. M10 has a ratio of 1:3:6. M15 has a ratio of 1:2:4. M20 has a ratio of 1:1.5:3. M25 has a ratio of 1:1:2, but M30 has no set ratio. It is a designed mixture to achieve the stress tolerance desired.
For M7.5 concrete, the common mix ratio is 1:4:8. This means:1 part cement 4 parts fine aggregates (sand)8 parts coarse aggregates. These ratio is by volume.
Aggregate to cement ratio is an important thing which affects the workability....! If the aggregate/cement ratio is higher , the concrete will be Leaner. Less quantity of paste is available for lubrication, Hence workability decreases..!! On the other hand if the aggregate/cement ratio is lower, the concrete will be fatty. Higher quantity of paste is available for lubrication. Hence workability increases. ! Thus Higher aggregate content leads to lowering of workability....!

The lime content that is found in cement causes cement to heat.

The content of C3S in cement depends on type of cement.If it is Ordinary Portland Cement, then the C3S content is 95%; andif it is Pozzolona Portland Cement, c3s is 65% - 70%

YesWhite cement is stronger than grey cement.Due to low content of iron oxide and high content of limestone the strength is greater .
For M10 (1:3:6) Grade of concrete cement bag consumed = 4.4 bags/cum M15(1:2:4) Grade of concrete cement bag consumed = 6.6 bag/cum M20(1:1.5:3) Grade of concrete cement bag consumed = 8.2 bag/cum
It depends on the Grade of Concrete. general grades are M15, M20, M25 etc. here are the nos. of bag required -------------------Bag for 1 cum---------------Bag for 5 cum M15------------------- 6.4----------------------------32 M20-------------------- 8-----------------------------40 M25--------------------12----------------------------60
The sulphate resistant cement is made with low C3A content is found to be effective.Such cement with low C3A and comparitively low C4AF content is known as sulphate resisting cement.This cement has a high silicate content.The specification generally limits the C3A content to 5 percent.
For nominal Mix Cement consumption for M25 will be 570 kg per cum. and for Design Mix it can be optimised to 510 kg per cum.
please define your question again. Different concrete mixes have different cement consumptions depending upon their design mix.
