The grade of concrete normally used for RCC is M20.
The grade of concrete for RCC (Reinforced Cement Concrete) is determined based on the design requirements and structural considerations.
The most commonly used grade of concrete for RCC is M20, which means the concrete mix has a compressive strength of 20 megapascals (MPa) after 28 days of curing.
Other grades of concrete like M25, M30, M35, etc., can also be used depend...
