CONCRETE GRADES

Used for: Pavement kerbs and floor blinding

Used for: Domestic floors and foundations (where the weight of structure will be lighter). Also good for workshop bases, garages, driveways and internal floor slabs.

Used for: Construction in all areas. Multi-purpose concrete mix, usually used for foundations.

Used for: Pathways and roadways (this is the lowest grade concrete mix that can be used for this purpose). More durable than the grades that have come before, and thus is much more weather-resistant and can take heavy road traffic.

Used for: Commercial structures. This heavy concrete mix is usually used for creating external walls and slabs, as well as for structural piling.

Used for: Commercial construction sites, creating foundations and beams for structural support and roads. The most durable in this list, C40 can withstand chemical corrosion also, so is frequently used on farms where slurry could corrode structures, or in septic tanks.
