    The hardwood interior was amazing. He used 12 different kinds of hardwood for the floors, doors, ceilings etc.

    I did ask how much it cost.... 82 million for the house construction alone without furniture and excluding the land price.

    Crazy hehehe. But damn!!!!

    Masters, please help me translate concrete mix (M20) or 1-1.5-3 using bags of cement. This is what the foreman is familiar with. According to him, sobrang tibay na raw ng 1-2-3 using cement bag volume, not sure if the concrete ratio guide pertains to volume or weight kasi. Thanks.

    What's the concrete strength required? 3000psi? Stick w/ 1:2:3 by volume & keep water content at a minimum. The amount of water used to mix is a vital factor in determining the final strength of concrete. Use the least to get a workable mix.

    iba talaga pag engineer. Ang dami kailangan pag-aralan na sukat at bigat. Calculado talaga. Bakit pag licensure exam eh ang foucs puro sa mga attorney. Di ba dapat sa mga engineer kasi sila kumakalkula ng buidlings.

    I actually want 3500 psi, if that sack style volume is applicable, then I'll do the M20 mix. Thanks Sir Travs! House Construction

    20Mpa is a tad under 3000psi. The 1:2:3 mix will yield above that if controlled well. Note that plant-batched concrete will be more precisely portioned by weight. For DIY mixes, it might be a challenge to do mass portioning, hence, volume is tolerated. To check mix & moisture content consistency, do the slump test.

    You may devise your own version of the 12" test cone. The lesser the slump, the stronger the yield.

    For 1:2:3 workable mix you can get 4000-5000 psi. You can try 1:3:4 for 3000-3500psi. Sometimes on sacks method not all are filled equally. Like what trav said water is a major factor for concrete strength.

    Won't that consistency be difficult to manage if I don't have a concrete vibrator?
