In conventional construction the concrete is placed from height of 0.6 to 1 meter, and that is what recommended height to place the concrete. In Mivan Technology of construction the concrete is placed from height of 3 meter in shear wall and compacted using vibrator, now as height of placing concrete is more there are chances of segregation in ...
RCC 1:2:4 Where cement concrete 1:2:4 is used; it means 1 part of cement 2 parts of fine aggregate/coarse sand and 4 parts of coarse aggregate. This ratio of cement concrete gives high strength of cement concrete and is recommended for following works. • For general RCC work in buildings • Lintels • Pavement etc.
