Maybe look at using c7.5 as specified on this page (http://www.dts-uk.com/html/readymix_concrete.html) which has lots of info on different concrete mixes. It says ST1/Gen 2 for House Floor - topped with Screed. I believer that ST1 is another name for C7.5 concrete. You can check all the different BS882 code (c7.5,c10,c20,c30 etc) concrete mixes on this site http://www.pavingexpert.com/concmix1.html , its also got some useful aggregate quantity calculators on there.
