3 parts grano to 1 part cement add neat water sparingly till desired mix
a nominal mix is that mix in which we adopt the various ingredients such as1:2:3,1:2.5:4etc here the strength will not be the desired strength and generally here we take the ingredients per unit vol a design mix is that mix in we find the ratio of the different ingredients as per the desired strength and the ingredients would be in per unit weight
get some hot macadam- jam it into the pothole, tamp it. done.
Normally it's a one-two-three mix. One part cement, 2 parts sand, 3 parts aggregate. The sand is graded which means it has a variety of grain sizes.

Vitcas Heatproof Screed is suitable for outdoor oven a
The function of floor screed is to make a structural level floor surface above a waterproof membrane. It is usually made by either pumping in a special mix of self- levelling runny 'concrete - like' material or more traditionally a sharp sand and cement mix. Traditional screed is tamped by a large flat wooden or aluminum beam, which is called a screed, from which screed gets it's name. It should be very flat once finished and can be tiled once it has dried out, which can take weeks. It is usually laid over an insulation foam and often has electric heating elements or warm water pipes in it to make it into a large radiator. Thin screed needs to be reinforced to make it strong enough for the loads that are put on top of it which can be steel mesh or special fibres. This means that thinner screeds are often made up of specialist ingredients to make them self levelling and strong.
design mix M25
a concrete mix of suitable slump as per mix design should be selected
40 20 concrete design mix is the water to cementitious materials ratio. This is what determines the class of the design mix.
M30 mix should be a mix design in laboratory with the available raw materials that is used in the preparation of concrete. The aggregates, sand have different compressive strength, water absorption and these values are used in mix design.

it has more cement than the normal mix
The acceptable standard is 4:1 (That is 4 wheelbarrows of sand to TWO bags cement) as the volume of a wheelbarrow is roughly double that of a 50kg bag of cement. Lots of builders get "confused" by this.

Between 250 and 280 is typical for hot mix.
