In my view the alternative have not much effect on cost. For RCC slab do not use Portland Pozzolana cement use 43 grade Portland cement with river sand or stone dust but one thing also clear that the sand should not have silt more than 4%. Wash the sand before use. | | |

Sir,
@SL Gupta and @akmurty1,
Thanks a lot for the valuable advice.
If commercially available PPC (with ISI specs) is used in Mortar along with Granite Dust for walls and plastering, is there any need for adding any Resin to the mix, to prevent cracking? If yes, could you please suggest an appropriate Resin and the ratio of Resin by volume?
Thanks | | |
