Cement Mixing and Brick Layering
Steps in preparing cement mix
Step 1 : preparing dry cement mix
Supplies needed :
Cement (purchase the type of cement that Is suitable for the condition and weather in Cambodia.)
Fine sand and gravel. (amount of fine sand and gravel to cement is 2:3:1)
Steps:
Lay out the supply
Use a spade to shovel the ingredients in the ratio provided 1 part cement, 2 part fine sand and 3 part gravel into a wheel barrow
Mix the ingredients thoroughly with a spade
Lay the mixed ingredients onto the ground and create a hole in the middle
Step 2 : incorporating water into the dry mix
Pour roughly 18.9L water into the hole
Slowly mix water with the cement starting from the inside wall of the dry cement. This is to prevent water leaking/flowing out from the centre.
Keep mixing for 5-10 minutes so that the mixture is consistent.
