B15 The different types of Concrete generally used in typical Construction of structures are as follows: Sulphate Resisting Concrete (SRC)/ Plain Cement Concrete (PCC) – Used for non-structural works such as Blinding, Screeding, and Protection works. Generally, this is low strength concrete with a mixed design of M15 or M20. Microsilica Concrete – Typically used for Substructure Construction. Microsilica Concrete is generally preferred for elements in contact with soil or water. This type of Concrete is preferred in Rafts, Basement Slabs, Piles and Pile Caps, Retaining walls, etc. High Strength Concrete – This type of concrete does not have any special additive but is designed for load-bearing elements such as Columns, Shear walls, transfer beams, etc. Mix designs may vary from M45 to M70 based on strength requirements. Waterproof Concrete – In this type of concrete, a waterproof admixture is added to concrete during batching to impart waterproofing properties in concrete. This ty...
