CONCRETE MIX RATIO WITH GRADE AND USAGE AREA

The ratio of aggregate to sand to cement is an important factor in determining the compressive strength of the concrete mixture.</span></div> <div class="ImageBlock ImageBlockCenter" style="background-color: white; line-height: 16.9px; margin: 1em 0px; max-width: 100%; overflow: hidden; text-align: center;"> <div class="pinit"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a class="pin-it-button" count-layout="horizontal" href="http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.everything-about-concrete.com%2Fconcrete-mixing-ratios.html&media=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.everything-about-concrete.com%2Fimages%2Fmix-material.jpg&description=The%20correct%20concrete%20mixing%20ratio%20can%20be%20done%20in%20a%20wheel-barrow.%20%20All%20you%20need%20is%201%20part%20cement%20to%203%20parts%20sand%20and%203%20parts%20stone."></a></span></div> </div> <center style="background-color: white; line-height: 16.9px;"> </center> <div style="background-color: white; line-height: 16.9px;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A concrete mixture ratio of 1 part cement, 3 parts sand, and 3 parts aggregate will produce a concrete mix of approximately 3000 psi.</span></div> <div style="background-color: white; line-height: 16.9px; text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Mixing water with the cement, sand, and stone will form a paste that will bind the materials together until the mix hardens. The strength properties of the concrete are inversely proportional to the water/cement ratio.</span></div> <div style="background-color: white; line-height: 16.9px; text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: normal;"><br /></span></div> <div style="background-color: white; line-height: 16.9px; text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: normal;">First put in the water - around 7 litres (1½ gallons), using more or less depending on the type of mix required. Add some aggregate before adding cement, to avoid sticking. Work consistently to the ratio of ingredients for whatever type of concrete mix you are working to.</span></div> <div style="background-color: white; line-height: 16.9px; text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;

font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Beware of low grade aggregates; these will only lead to trouble later on with sinking and frost spoiling the appearance of the pour.</div> <div style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Also do not get the concrete mix too wet as this can reduce strength and make it less able to withstand weathering.</div> <h3 style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium; text-align: left;"> Looking after your mixer</h3> <div style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Never throw material into the mixer - trickle it steadily over the rim or it will stick firmly to the back of the drum and can only be dislodged by stopping the mixer.</div> <div style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Keep your mixer clean - material left in the drum will harden, and attract more on each use until the mixer is useless.</div> <div style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Do not throw bricks into a mixer drum to clean it out. The best method is a mix of 1" (2½cm) gravel and clean water - use plenty of it, as this will do the job in half the time.</div> </div> </div>
