Fun Fact

The term "backhoe" refers to the action of the bucket, not its location on the vehicle. That is, a backhoe digs by drawing earth backwards, rather than lifting it with a forward motion like a person shovelling, a steam shovel, or a bulldozer. The buckets on some backhoes may be reconfigured facing forward, making them "hoes".

Concrete

Mix it...

Concrete Mixes are primarily divided into two types, nominal mix and design mix: Nominal mix ratios are given in volume of Cement : Sand : Aggregate. Nominal mixes are a simple, fast way of getting a basic idea of the properties of the finished concrete without having to perform testing in advance.

The Ratio

15 mpa is a low-strength concrete mix and is suitable for house foundations that are not reinforced, and for boundary walls and freestanding retaining walls. Mix Ratio: One bag 50kg cement to two wheelbarrows sand to two wheelbarrows stone.

1 Cubic Meter To make 1 cubic metre of 15 Mpa concrete you will need to mix 5 1/2 bags of cement with 0,75 cubic metres of sand and 0,75 cubic metres of stone.


25 mpa is a medium strength concrete and is suitable for reinforced foundations, light-duty house floors, patio slabs, footpaths, steps, driveways and garage floors. Mix Ratio: One bag 50kg cement to one-and-a-half wheelbarrows sand to one-and-a-half wheelbarrows stone.

1 Cubic Meter To make 1 cubic metre of 25 Mpa concrete you will need to mix 7 bags of cement with 0,70 cubic metres of sand and 0,70 cubic metres of stone.


30 mpa is a high strength concrete and is suitable for suspended structural beams, pre-cast beams and flagstones, heavy-duty workshop floors and suspended reinforced floors. Mix Ratio: One bag 50kg cement to one wheelbarrow sand to one wheelbarrow stone.

1 Cubic Meter To make 1 cubic metre of 30 Mpa concrete you will need to mix 10 bags of cement with 0,65 cubic metres of sand and 0,65 cubic metres of stone.

Batching

Generally, materials for smaller jobs are batched by volume. Recommended ratios will enable you to mix concrete to match the function for which it is intended, or the strength of the concrete required. One 50 kg sack of cement has a volume of 33 litres (0,033 cu m). A builders' wheelbarrow, filled level to the top, has a volume of 65 litres (0.065 cu m, which is almost double the volume of a sack). When batching by volume, it is safe to assume that one wheelbarrow-load is equivalent to two sacks of cement. Since sand bulks in volume when it is damp, the mix ratio is based on the use of damp bulked sand. If you are measuring dry sand, reduce the quantity of each batch by 20–25 percent. You will also need to add more water to compensate for the lack of water in the sand. The recommended ratios are based on the use of either 19 mm or 13,2 mm commercial crushed concrete stone. Stone does not bulk in volume when it gets wet and so no correction is necessary.

Mixers

Why buy it, when you can rent it?

The Mixer often colloquially called a cement mixer is a device that homogeneously combines cement, aggregate such as sand or gravel, and water to form concrete. A typical concrete mixer uses a revolving drum to mix the components. For smaller volume works, portable concrete mixers are often used so that the concrete can be made at the construction site, giving the workers ample time to use the concrete before it hardens.

Breakers

Demolition Anyone?

The Breaker or, jackhammer operates by driving an internal hammer up and down. The hammer is first driven down to strike the chisel and then back up to return the hammer to the original position to repeat the cycle. The effectiveness of the jackhammer is dependent on how much force is applied to the tool. It is generally used like a hammer to break the hard surface or rock in construction works and it is not considered under earth moving equipment, along with its accessories (i.e., pusher leg, lubricator).
