Answer / krishnaraj khatri

No the ratio 1:1.5:3.65 is incorrect. The optimum mix
design for M25 grade concrete is 1:1:2

Answer / sjtbehera

If you are going Is 456-2000 it is 1:1:2. in case you going
to mix design yes is 1:1.5:3.65. i calculate this design
according to local material.
You also cam calculate.

My last answer has a typing error here M25 will 1:1:2.

Answer / er shalu verma

OPTIMUM MIX DESIGN FOR M25- 1:1:2
SO 1:1.5:3.65 IS INCORRECT RATIO OF M25 MIX DESIGN.

Answer / janak khatri

m20 grade--1;1.5;3 correct answer

Answer / mahendra mohan srivastava

We have two type of mix one is nominal mix and second is
designe mis. if we go through nominal mix then we can say
M25 is 1:1.5:3. but M25 and above this please go through
only designe mix recommended by BIS. so we can calculate
after seive analyse and thro grading of aggregate.

Answer / lalit lokhande

When you go through the mix design ..it almost comes like
1:2.06:3.53,

1:1.5:3.65 is almost correct except the quantity of sand.
