Good evening ma'am.

I'm just getting your requests now.

However the dimensions on the drawings are not readable.

Can you please send the drawings to my email: qsfemi@gmail.com

In addition, you can send the structural drawings along with it if you have them. But if you don't have them, I can still do it perfectly.

Thanks

this calculation is for 600m2 of concrete using 1:2:4 and thickness of 150mm

CEMENT = 570 bags

SAND = 64 tonnes

GRANITE = 160 tonnes

this calculation is for 600m2 of concrete using 1:2:4 and thickness of 100mm

CEMENT = 380 bags

SAND = 43 tonnes

GRANITE = 106 tonnes

Goodluck

Hello boss. I still jam you for here again. Lol.

I'm a young engineer, and most of the jobs I've taken is company job, and the major role is quality assurance. So I always have problem with this calculation of materials needed to produce concrete.

My problem is this: Using the 1:2:4, you calculated 380bags of cements, 43 tonnes of sand and 106 tonnes of granite.

1: 2: 4 means, for 1 bag of cement, we will put 4 head pan of sand, and 8 head pan of granite.
I was told that 5 tonnes of sand contains 20 wheel barrow, and 1 wheel barrow is 4 hp of sand, approximately 5 tonnes contains 80hp of sands. So we can therefore say 4hp is equal to 0.25 tonnes.
Same calculation for granite too, that 5 tonnes of granite contain 20 wheel barrow, since granite is twice that of sand, 8hp of granite equals 0.5 tonnes.

Using this information with 1:2:4, it means 1bag of cement to 0.25 tonnes of sand to 0.5 tonnes of granite => 1:0.25:0.5

Since we calculated 380 bags of cement, if we use it to multiply this ratio :
Sand = 380 × 0.25 = 95 tonnes
Granite = 380 × 0.5 =190 tonnes

Which is quite different from your calculation.
I will like you to enlighten me more on this.

NB: waste is not included in my calculations.

A professional or specialist needed for this design of tile cladding.
Please indicate your interest, location and fees. And possible suggestions where necessary.
Depending on cost it could cover the entire building or just the entrance pillars base to top, then the first and upper floors upwards to window level.

Good evening.

The dimensions of the Septic tank / soak away is given as Length = 3.00m, breadth = 1.80m and depth = 3.90m (13feet) according to you. Although I seriously doubt the feasibility of your depth, I'll do justice to it nonetheless.

Estimate of materials for proposed works;
1) Excavation 21m3 @ 1000/m3 = 21,000.00
2) Columns, 4nr, size 225mm x 225mm x 3900mm depth.
- cement 6 bags
_ 12mm reinforcement 6 length
_ 10mm reinforcement 5 length
3) 225mm blockwall = 380 blocks (same quantity even if you're using 150mm block)
_ cement 4 bags
4) reinforced concrete cover and oversite concrete to the base
_ Cement 10 bags
_ 12mm Dia. Reinforcement 7 lengths
5) 25mm x 300mm x 3600mm softwood as for work 5 lengths
_ 50mm x 50mm x 3600mm bracing 4 length
6) Plastering
_ Cement 6 bags
7) Make a reasonable supply of sand.

That's the quantity of materials needed for he job based on your dimensions.

If you need cost of labour, mention me in your reply.

This is the sound advice of a professional Quantity Surveyor.

majorly depends on how they were stored but typically, they have lost strength but if they are physically okay, they can be used as non-load bearing walls

Truth is the older the blocks, the stronger they become. I am referring to blocks moulded with the right mix.
