Calculate cement, sand, and aggregate ratios for target PSI
Our concrete mix calculator determines the proper proportions of cement, sand, and aggregate to achieve your target strength in PSI. Whether you're mixing concrete for a fence post, patio, or structural application, this tool provides the correct mix ratio and material quantities.
Concrete strength depends primarily on the water-cement ratio and mix proportions. Lower water content creates stronger concrete but is harder to work. The calculator provides standard mix designs from 2000 PSI for non-structural applications up to 5000+ PSI for driveways and structural work.
This calculator is valuable for contractors mixing on-site, DIYers making custom concrete, and anyone asking "what is the concrete mix ratio for 3000 PSI?" For critical structural applications, use commercial ready-mix concrete with certified strength.
