deign as per the codes or the design methods and go for the trail mixes.////
40 20 concrete design mix is the water to cementitious materials ratio. This is what determines the class of the design mix.
The mix proportion for M40 concrete is 1:1.65:2.92W/C ratio = 0.4The design calculation is as per IS mix design
it has more cement than the normal mix
Concrete mix is made from (sharp)sand, cement, aggregate and water. The ratios depent on the usage
The IS code for concrete mix design in India is IS 10262:2019. This code provides guidelines for selecting the appropriate concrete mix proportions based on the desired strength, workability, and durability requirements. It outlines methods for calculating the quantities of materials needed for various concrete grades, ensuring that the mix meets the specified performance criteria. Additionally, it emphasizes considerations for factors such as environmental conditions and the type of materials used.

Its the process of selecting suitable ingredients of concrete and determining their relative amounts with the objective of producing a concrete of the required, strength, durability, and workability as economically as possible, is termed the concrete mix design.
a concrete mix of suitable slump as per mix design should be selected

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.
mix ratio is 1 : 2 : 4 cement : fine aggregate : course aggregate
Lean mix concrete is used for substructures like foundations,piles,etc.,Ready mix concrete is used for superstructures and also for mass construction.Generally, quality of ready mix concrete is good when compared to the lean mix concrete.Workability of lean mix concrete is high when compared to RMC.
