Q1. Which grade of concrete normal use for rcc
Ans. 
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...read more

Q2. What is the procedure to define one way and two way slab.How you will fix the reinforcement for two way slab
Ans. 
To define one way and two way slab, we follow different procedures. For two way slab, reinforcement is fixed in both directions.
• One way slab is defined as the slab in which the ratio of longer span to shorter span is greater than or equal to 2.

• Two way slab is defined as the slab in which the ratio of longer span to shorter span is less than 2.

• For two way slab, reinforcement is fixed in both directions to distribute the...read more

Q1. Why we mix addmixture in concrete
Ans. 
Admixtures are added to concrete to improve its properties and performance.
• Admixtures enhance the workability and durability of concrete.

• They can reduce the water content required for a given slump, making the concrete more cohesive.

• Admixtures can accelerate or retard the setting time of concrete.

• They improve the strength, durability, and resistance to chemical attack of concrete.

• Examples of admixtures include water re...read more
