Thanks, what's d mix ratio for German floor using 8/3 sand alone

Good morning, I noticed you used 6" Hole blocks for both internal and external walls. If someone intends to pass all the pipes through the wall can the sewage pipe, which is usually 4", pass through the 6" Hole blocks. Or is there another way of passing the pipes through this size of block?.

Why do you choose 8/3 sand for German floor? Have not used it before.

Try 1bag of cement: 6 buckets of sand : 10 buckets of 8/3 sand.

This is beautiful. Your work is neat and precise. The calculations really shows you are well experienced in building. I've only seen few threads that break down cost like this. Most of them are like galleries, they can only show photos, logos and phone numbers. Good job, i'm following this to learn. Thank you.
