What is a Concrete Mixing Ratio?

A concrete mixing ratio refers to the proportion of the components used to create concrete. The primary components include cement, sand, aggregate, and water. The ratio determines the strength, workability, and durability of the concrete. Common ratios include 1:2:3 (cement:sand:aggregate) for general construction purposes. Adjusting the ratio can tailor the concrete mix for specific applications, such as high-strength or lightweight concrete.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ Q = \frac{50 + 100 + 150 + 30}{3} = 110 \]

The calculated quantity (Q) is 110.
