Good.9" for block moulding, 1 bag of cement go give you 35 pieces of 9"blocks for hand moulding block. So budget 63 bags of cement to give you 2200 with 50 tonnes of sharp sand.

Yes I preferred using flat roofing system because it saves cost esp Hidden Flat roofing system compare to hip Roofing system. The only cons there is leakages. It always leak if not properly installed.
