Rit ans is 35 liter Fine agg + coarse agg = 350.

Ratio = 1 : 2 : 4.
Sum of aggregates = 6,
Weight of cement = 350/6 = 58.33,

For nominal M15 mix water cement ratio = 0.60 plain concrete and RCC 0.50.

Water = 58.33 X 0.60= 35 liter and RCC liy 58.33 x 0.5=30 liter and M15 330kg 32 liter recommended for is code 456 2000 page no.23.

Weight of cement = 350/6 = 58.33,
For nominal M15 mix water cement ratio = .55,
Water = 58.33 X .55 = 32 ltr.
