Concrete mix calculation (manual) Length of Concrete- 252 inches Width of Concrete- 9 inches Depth of Concrete- 36 inches. Solution 1st Step: Conversion of the dimensions to metric unit {SI unit of length} gives us: New length = 6.40m New width = 0.23m New depth = 0.92m (Hint: 1 inch = 0.0254). Hence, Volume = 6.40 x 0.23 x 0.92 = 1.35m³ 2nd Step: The mix ratio for a reinforced concrete is 1:2:4(Grade M15) for example. 1:2:4 is equivalent to Cement: Fine aggregate: Coarse aggregate Volume of Cement in the mix = 1/7 x 1.35m³ =0.19m³ Remember, Density = Mass/Volume Density of dry Cement= 1440Kg/m³ Density of wet cement = 3150Kg/m³(average). Therefore, Mass(Kg) of cement = Density x Volume = 3150 x 0.19 = 598.5Kg Note: 1 bag = 50kg Total no of bags = 598.5/50 = 11.97 = 12 bags. Fine aggregate (Sand) Volume = 2/7 x 1.35m³ = 0.38m³ Dry loose Bulk density = 1550Kg/m³ Mass in Kg = 1550 x 0.38 =589 Kg I tonne = 1000kg Hence, Amount of sand = 589/1000 = 0.59tonne Coarse Aggregate ( Gravel) Volume = 4/7 x 1.35m³ = 0.76m³ Bulk Density= 1350Kg/m³ Mass = 1350 x 0.76 = 1026kg Amount in tonne = 1026/1000 = 1.03 tonnes.

BrickDevo: BRC wire mesh is made of similar material just like the reinforcement bars but of a minimal diameter. 2 Likes
