There are n number of pumping additives are available in market which fails to do pumping of concrete after an average height of 5 floors.

Cement slurry is commonly used for any height of pumping.

Today sharing its mix design with you all for having better concrete.

Mix design of slurry is as follows;

OPC Cement – 400 Kg

Water – 200 Kg

Crush sand – 946 Kg

River Sand – 951 Kg

You can modify it as per your need and site conditions.

Mix design for slurry is attached herewith.

All can reply to this thread with there mix design of same grade, this will help other to understand designing in more better way and can do a cost optimization.
