Here, we break down what you need to know for general-purpose DIY cement projects, and give advice on the use of ready mix concrete. Ground and formwork preparation. Clear the site beyond the edges of the slab to allow enough room for setting out pegs and formwork. Dig out to the required depth of the slab (nominal 100mm) allowing additional depth for a layer of sub base (100mm). Ensure ...

Points should be remembered while calculating the quantity of cement, sand for plastering work. For wall plastering, the ratio of Cement : Sand = 1 : 6. For ceiling plastering, the ratio of Cement : Sand = 1 : 4. Thickness of plaster varies according to type of work generally it is 6mm and 12-15mm. Use good quality of cement & Sand for plastering.

Concrete Ingredients Calculation. For Cement, Sand and Coarse Aggregate. This is a Volumetric Calculation. Assuming we need 2 m 3 of concrete for M20 Concrete Mix, (Mix Ratio, M20 = 1 : 1.5 : 3) Total Part of the Concrete = 1+1.5+3 = 5.5 Parts. Therefore, Cement Quantity = (Cement Part / Concrete Parts ) * Concrete Volume

The ratio of cement mortar is 1:5. The sum is 1+5 =6. Thus, the total dry mortar required for 1 cum brick masonry is.30cum. So, The required cement is (.30×1)/6= 0.05 cum. After converting into KG=.05×1440=72KG. When converted KG into the number of bags= 72/50=1.44bag. To calculate the sand quantity ; Given that the sand cement ratio is 1:5

3. Volume of 1 bag of cement= 50/1440=0.3472 m3 (1440 is density of cement) 4. To calculate the volume of any constituent of concrete, you must take account of a value called dry co-efficient. Its value is 1.52. For example, let's calculate the volme of cement, sand and gravel for 1 cubic meter of concrete mixed in 1:2:4 ratio. Vol of cement ...

For example, to calculate the volume in cubic meters for a wall with a height of 2m, width of 20cm and length of 4m, you need to multiply 2 x 0.2 x 4, which equals 1.6 m 3 (cubic meters). It is no different for a concrete footing, where we again have the familiar formula h x w x l .

* Note that our Concrete Calculator uses the stats of premixed cement density, which is 2,130 kg/cubic meters, and 133 pounds/cubic feet in order to calculate the weight of concrete which is required. It's also important to note that the density of concrete will differ depending on the type of concrete you are using.
