Any one know the differnt ratios of sand and cement for the different strengths of concrete eg. 25N 35N etc.?

Answer:

Cement to aggregate ratios do not determine concrete strength. The water to cement ratio is what determines strength. Sand, gravel and other aggregates act as a bonding agent. Normal ratio is 7-15% cement to 14-21% water with remaining percentage as the aggregate.
