To calculate the cement and sand for 100 m2 plastering area

in 1:6 ratio and 12 mm thickness.

Cement Mortar Required:

Plastering thickness 12 mm = 12/1000 = 0.012m

Volume of cement mortar required = ( Plastering Area x thickness )

= 100 m2 x 0.012m = 1.2 m3

(This is wet volume that means we need this much volume of cement mortar
after mixing water, So for dry volume, we have to add 30-35% as bulkage of
sand, we are using 35% and wastage as 20%)

Consider 35% Sand Bulkage = 1.2 m3 x (1+0.2+0.35)

(Many of us would use 1.54 as constant)
= 1.86 m3

Cement : Sand (Ratio) = 1 : 6 ( Total = 1+6 = 7 Parts )

Cement required (1 Part) = 1.86 x 1/7

= 0.265 m3 /0.0347
= 7.66 bags (Approx 8 Bags)

Sand required (5 Part) = 1.86 x 6/7

= 1.59 m3

CONCRETE

Mix Ratio 1:2:4 - - (1:2:4) =1+2+4=7

7 is mixing propotion

Volume of wet cement concrete - 1.54 to 1.57

unit weight of cement is 1440kg/cum

1 bag of cement 50kg/bag - =50/1440=0.034722 cum

Cement = 1.54/7=0.22

0.22/0.03472=6.33 bags

1bag of cement = 50kgs

=6.33*50kgs=316.82 kgs

sand = 0.22*2=0.44cum

2 is the mixing of proportion

metal = 0.22*4=0.88cum

4 is the mixing of proportion

CEMENT = 6.33 NOS BAGS SAND = 0.46 M3 METAL = 0.88 M3

PLASTERING

Area of plaster = 3.05 x 3.05 = 9.3 m2

Thickness of plaster - 10mm Ratio 1:5

Volume of plaster = 9.3 x 0.01 = 0.09 m3

Quantity of cement = 0.09/1+5 =0.09/6 = 0.02 m3

1 bag cement =0.0347 m3

no. of cement bags = 0.02/0.0347 = 0.58 bags

quantity of sand = 0.02 x 5 = 0.10 m3

For wastage - add 30% extra .

CEMENT = 0.58 NOS BAGS SAND = 0.13 M3

BRICKWORK

Brick Size- 230mm x 115mm x 75mm Ratio 1:6

Vol. of brick( w/o mortar) = 0.00198 M3.

Thk. of mortar be 12mm.

vol. of brick with mortar = 242mm x 127mm x 87mm

= 0.00267 M3.

No. of bricks in 1 cum. with mortar = 1/0.00267= 373.99

Total No of Bricks = 374Nos.

Cement Mortar required = 1-( 374 x 0.00198) = 0.259 M3

Add 15% for frog filling and wastage while execution.

Volume of wet mortar = 0.299 M3

Volume of dry mortar ( increase by 30% ) = 0.388 M3

Qty. of cement = 1/7 x (1440 x 0.388) = 0.055 cum.

Qty. of sand = 0.055 x 6 = 0.330 cum.

CEMENT =1.6 NOS BAGS SAND = 0.13 M3
