Civil engineer practical knowledge

8. What is the nominal mix of M20?

the Nominal mix of M20 is 1 cement: 1.5 sand : 3 coarse aggregate.

9.What do you mean by M20?

M stands for Mix and 20 stands for 20 kN/mm2 which is characteristics strength of concrete.

10.What is the cement sand & aggregate ratios for various grades of concrete mix?

1. M10 – 1:3:6

2. M15 – 1:2:4

3. M20 – 1:1.5:3

4. M25 – 1:1:2

5. M30 – 1:1:1

11. What do you mean by honeycomb in concrete?

Honeycomb, also known as airpocket, is nothing but the air voids in concrete. It is usually formed during concrete casting.

12. What is the initial and final setting time of ideal cement mix?

initial setting is about 30 min and final setting time is about 10 hrs.

13.What do you mean by characteristics strength of concrete?

The compressive strength of concrete is given in terms of the characteristic compressive strength of 150 mm size cubes tested at 28 days (fck)- as per Indian Standards (ACI standards use the cylinder of diameter 150 mm and height 300 mm). The characteristic strength is defined as the strength of the concrete below which not more than 5% of the test results are expected to fall.

14.What are the types of cement?

There are various types of cement which are:

1.Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC)

2. White Portland Cement (WPC)

3. Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC)

4. Low Heat Portland Cement,

5.Coloured Portland Cement

6. Hydrophobic cement

7. Rapid Hardening Cement

8. Portland Slag Cement

9. Sulphate resisting Portland Cement, etc.

15.What do you know about “TMT”?

TMT stands for “Thermo Mechanically Treated”. Generally we use TMT bars and sheet for construction purposes for the reason that they have high strength and high corrosion resistance compared to normal steels.

16.What is the formula for weight of steel?

Weight of steel in kg can be calculate by formula (D2*L)/162; where D is diameter of steel bar in millimeter and L is total length of steel bar in meter.

17.What are common methods of curing the concrete?

1. Spraying

2. Wet covering of Surface

3. Ponding

4. Application of curing chemicals

5. Steam curing.
