I'm a Zambian mechanical engineering student and finding a Zambian engineering KZbin channel that's explaining concepts that applies to Zambians is exciting you have not idea! The physics the explanation it's so thrilling! You've inspired me! 🇿🇲👏🏾

[@PHDinMeTV]

This is so informative! Thanks for sharing! I appreciate seeing a woman civil engineer of color👷🏾‍♀️!

[@theladyengineer]

You're welcome.😊

[@TheMainzah]

Thank you for sharing. This is very helpful.

[@leelwando8308]

I had to scroll down hoping I find this topic by you. Thanks

[@theladyengineer]

You're welcome

[@oneconstructor5100]

In your example you should have restricted 100thick slab to your illustration M15 and below also mention that M15 is domestic mix as it cant apply to the 200 and 300 you talked about.

[@theladyengineer]

The video was showing how you calculate the materials not necessarily the ideal concrete strength for structures but thanks for your contribution. It was also mentioned this is just for illustration purposes.

[@kedrickkunda3281]

Am so much impressed to learn from you... Do you mind sharing your line with me? I would love to learn more from you....

[@justinsimposya4520]

Thanx for sharing. So helpful.

[@theladyengineer]

You're welcome. Check the description box for the link to Building books you need for complete calculations.

So good!

[@theladyengineer]

Thank you Global Bawarchi

Hi,100 feet long 2feet wide 2 feet deep. 7.5 grade concrete i mean 1-4-8 how many bag cement.sand.aggrigate is requird?

[@presidejzgc7847]

This is a great video! And I want to ask, are the letters C and M directly interchangeable? Do they mean the same thing?

[@theladyengineer]

Hey, yes they are interchangeable. "M" stands for mix design whilst "C" is the compressive strength of concrete. E.g. M15 is equivalent to 1:2:4 mix design giving C15 with compressive strength 15N/mm^2. One and the same thing.

😮 Zambia? I am too proud of you 🌹

[@fideliskabwe5380]

Thanks! My bricklayers just assume/d😥.

[@theladyengineer]

At least now you know what to do so next time you can guide them.
