The cement concrete shall be in 1:4:8 (cement, sand, coarse aggregate). The coarse aggregate shall be 25 mm down. The water cement ratio shall be adjusted at site to maintain the flowability of concrete to fill all the interstices properly. The plums are laid in layers using the cement concrete as mortar. The plum shall be raised uniformly, and no part, at any time shall be raised more than 900 mm above adjoining work.
