Tips for Concrete Projects

  • A standard concrete mix ratio is 1:2:3 (cement:sand:gravel) for general construction.
  • For a cubic meter of concrete, you typically need about 6-7 bags (40kg) of cement, 0.5 cubic meters of sand, and 0.75 cubic meters of gravel.
  • Always add a waste factor of 5-10% to account for spillage, settling, and other unexpected situations.
  • Concrete usually takes 24-48 hours to set initially, but reaches its full strength after about 28 days.
  • Ensure proper curing by keeping the concrete moist for at least 7 days after pouring.
