Ive always used self compacting concrete for mine with 10mm agg. Started out as Agilia with Lafarge but they are gone now. Even with beam and block or ground bearing slab ive used this.

Just been past an extension where the lads were packing up the pump. They reckon 185 m3 plus VAT. Didnt seem too bad to me I paid 145 5 years ago. They charge 500 for the pump and laying which seems a bargain considering pump hire alone can be over 300. Said they always like to lay once the shell is up and roof is on so doesnt dry out too fast. Ive always preferred doing it once upto dpc level. Easier to link dpm in to walls and nice floor to build on. What do you guys do?
