Q1. What is the grade of concrete
Ans. 
The grade of concrete refers to its strength and is determined by the ratio of cement to sand to aggregate.
• The grade of concrete is typically denoted by a number followed by the letter 'M', such as M20, M30, etc.

• The number in the grade represents the compressive strength of the concrete in megapascals (MPa) after 28 days of curing.

• For example, M20 concrete has a compressive strength of 20 MPa, while M30 concrete has a ...read more

Q1. What is Full form of SBC
Ans. 
SBC stands for Safe Bearing Capacity.
• SBC is the maximum pressure that can be applied to the soil without risk of shear failure.

• It is an important factor in the design of foundations for structures.

• For example, if the SBC of a soil is 200 kN/m^2, it means that the soil can safely support a load of 200 kN per square meter.
