Used to create a uniform base surface for foundation concrete. It prevents direct contact between structural concrete and the soil, reducing moisture-related issues.
Mainly used as a non-structural base layer beneath foundations or flooring. It provides a level and stable surface for structural concrete to be poured over.
Used in non-structural applications such as leveling courses, bedding for footings, and simple concrete roads or pavements.
Used for similar purposes as M10. Commonly used in plain cement concrete (PCC) works like flooring and non-reinforced footings.
This is the minimum grade recommended for reinforced concrete (RCC). It is suitable for slabs, beams, columns, and residential foundations.
Used in standard RCC construction for moderate load-bearing structures like beams, slabs, columns, and footings in residential and commercial buildings.
Similar to M25 but with higher strength. Often used in commercial buildings and lightly loaded industrial structures.
Used in pre-stressed concrete applications such as heavy slabs, load-bearing beams, and medium-span bridges.
Suitable for pre-stressed and high-load RCC structures. It is used in concrete roads (PQC), precast girders, RCC columns, and industrial floors.
Offers slightly higher strength than M40. Used in demanding structural elements and large-scale infrastructure.
Applied in high-performance projects like airport runways, concrete highways, high-rise RCC columns, and prestressed girders.
Used in the same type of works as M50, especially where greater durability and strength are needed.
Used in high-rise buildings, long-span bridges, dam spillways, and coastal structures. It performs well in projects that demand high compressive strength and durability.
Flows on its own without vibration, making it ideal for complex formwork and densely reinforced sections. It speeds up construction, reduces labor, and improves surface finish.
Reduces the overall structural load. It provides good thermal and sound insulation and is often used in high-rise floors, partition walls, and roof slabs.
Incorporates self-healing technology that seals micro-cracks and resists water penetration. It extends the life of structures like basements, water tanks, and underground foundations.
