Hand-mixed: Cement and sand (1:3) (coarse sand)

Apply to landing slab

Assumptions:
1) Cost of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC = RM 0.38 per kg
(inclusive unloading)
2) Cost of sand = RM 45.00 per tonne
3) Cost of aggregate = RM 35.00 per tonne
3) Density of Ordinary Portland Cement = 1420 kg per m
4) Density of sand = 1600 kg per m
Density of aggregate = 1400 kg per m
5) Cost of vibrator (including fuel) = RM per day
6) Hiring cost of concrete mixer = RM per day
7) Consumption of diesel for concrete mixer =
8) Cost of lubricator for mixer = RM per day
9) Wage of a labour = RM per day
10) Number of labour =
Additional labour, hoisting and placing concrete =0.60 per m
Additional labour, working around reinforcement =0.55 per m
Working hours = 8 hours per day
11) Shrinkage, consolidation and wastage = 33.33%
Profit and overhead = 10%

Material cost RM RM/m

1) 1mcement = (1420 kg / mx RM 0.38 / kg) = 539.60
2) 2msand
= (2mx 1600kg / m) / 1000kg x RM 45.00 / tonne = 216.00
3) Cement and sand (1:3) per mix = 755.60
4) Add shrinkage, consolidation and wastage
= (33.33% x RM 755.60) = 251.84
5) Total material cost cement and sand (1:3) per 3m = 1007.44
Total material cost per m= RM 1007.44 per 3m/ 3 = 251.86

Labour cost
1) Labour gang hourly = (3 labourer x RM 60.00 / 8hrs) = 22.50
Total labour cost per m= (RM 22.50 / 1.20 mper hour) = 18.75

Plant cost
1) Concrete mixer per hour = 1 hour x (RM 80.00 / 8 hours) = 10.00
2) Diesel = 1 hour x (RM 18.00 / 8 = 2.25
hours) Plant cost per hour = 12.25
Total plant cost per m= (RM 12.25 / 1.20 mper hour) = 10.21

Total Unit Rate (RM) per m = 260.15
