The acceptable standard is 4:1 (That is 4 wheelbarrows of sand to TWO bags cement) as the volume of a wheelbarrow is roughly double that of a 50kg bag of cement.
Lots of builders get "confused" by this.

Can you use silica sand as a dry screed over underfloor heating pipes?
Unfortunately not. You require a 0-4mm sharp sand which can be purchased through most builders merchants. The mix should be approximately 1:4 Cement / Sand ratio. Mix to an earthy consistency and compact well. The cement is the conductor of the heat. Good luck with the project.

What is the function of the floor screed?
The function of floor screed is to make a structural level floor surface above a waterproof membrane. It is usually made by either pumping in a special mix of self- levelling runny 'concrete - like' material or more traditionally a sharp sand and cement mix. Traditional screed is tamped by a large flat wooden or aluminum beam, which is called a screed, from which screed gets it's name. It should be very flat once finished and can be tiled once it has dried out, which can take weeks. It is usually laid over an insulation foam and often has electric heating elements or warm water pipes in it to make it into a large radiator. Thin screed needs to be reinforced to make it strong enough for the loads that are put on top of it which can be steel mesh or special fibres. This means that thinner screeds are often made up of specialist ingredients to make them self levelling and strong.
