As Per Is 516 Cl 2.6.2: Hand Mixing Procedure For Cube In Lab

  1. The cement and fine aggregate shall be mixed dry until the mixture is thoroughly blended and is uniform in colour.
  2. The coarse aggregate shall then be added and mixed with the cement and fine aggregate until the coarse aggregate is uniformly distributed throughout the batch, and
  3. The water shall then be added, and the entire batch mixed until the concrete appears to be homogeneous and has the desired consistency.
  4. If repeated mixing is necessary, because of the addition of water in increments while adjusting the consistency, the batch shall be discarded and a fresh batch made without interrupting the mixing to make trial consistency tests.
  5. Mixers, the concrete shall be heaped together before sampling.
