As per IS code 456 - 2000.
M10 - 1:3:6 mix (approx).

Vikas said:   1 decade ago
For M5 1:4:8.

M10 1:3:6.

M15 1:2:4.

M20 1:1.5:3.

By comparing M10 and M15 we can see that for more strength ratio is decreasing. Just remember M10 then M20/M15 and all other mix become easy to understand.

Please help me for the method of calculation in mixing ratio in all grade of concrete mix.

1:3:6 Mix of concrete is used where. I mean in columns, slabs, beams etc. Tell it specifically. Waiting for reply from all respected members.

Baldev said:   1 decade ago
M10 mix is never used in column, slabs or beams. It is a layer of cement concrete separating the earth to the main concrete in foundation or you can say it is only used in foundation.

R.naveen kumar said:   1 decade ago
M10 mix was only used for foundation purpose. Because that having less compressive strength.

M-5 1:5:10.
M-7.5 1:4:8.
M-10 1:3:6.
M-15 1:1.5:3.
M-20 1:2:4.
M-25 1:1:2.

All of the above grade are made by design mix method.

Please tell me what is the calculation of find the grade of concrete. I know only the means of m10 10kn /mm2 strength but I don't know in which use the ratio in mix.

So please help me and send me mail the method of calculation in mixing ratio in all grade of concrete thnks.

@Sneka, your assumption is wrong, for M-15 ,the ratio is 1:1.5:3 by yours way summation all 1+1.5+3 = 5.5.
