What is the meaning of 20 in M20 grade concrete?
M20- M stands for Design Mix And 20 stands compressive strength of concrete after 28 days curing. mix ratio 1:1.5:2 M25- M stands for Design Mix And 25 stands compressive strength of concrete after 28 days

Understanding Grades of Concrete

Grades of concrete are defined by the strength and composition of the concrete, and the minimum strength the concrete should have following 28 days of initial construction. The grade of concrete is understood in measurements of MPa, where M stands for mix and the MPa denotes the overall strength.



Concrete mixes are defined in ascending numbers of 5, starting at 10, and show the compressive strength of the concrete after 28 days. For instance, C10 has the strength of 10 newtons, C15 has the strength of 15 newtons, C20 has 20 newtons strength and so on.



Different mixes (M) come in various mix proportions of the various ingredients of cement, sand and coarse aggregates. For instance, M20 comes in the respective ratio of 1:1:5:3. You can see other examples
