There is precisely how much cement, water, and aggregate should be used to get a good mixture. Usually, the concrete mix is made from 10 to 15 per cent cement, 15 to 20 per cent water, and 60 to 75 per cent aggregate. It is crucial to design the mix properly if we want to get a properly designed mixture. What goes into a concrete mix

Crushed aggregate is produced by crushing quarry rock, boulders, cobbles, or large-size gravel. Recycled concrete is a viable source of aggregate and has been satisfactorily used in granular subbases, soil-cement, and in new concrete. After harvesting, aggregate is processed: crushed, screened, and washed to obtain proper cleanliness and gradation.

Water/cement ratio theory states that for a given combination of materials and as long as workable consistency is obtained, the strength of concrete at a given age depends on the w/c ratio. The lower the w/c ratio, the higher the concrete strength. All materials used for a design including the water quality should be to a high standard.
