How to Determine the Quantity of Cement Sand , Aggregete and Reinforcement Bars in 30 feet X 40 Fe..

Answer / prabu

1 feet = 0.3048 meter
30'*40'*4' = 9.144 *12.192 * 1.2192 meter
total volume = 135.92 meter cubic

1 bag cement = 50 kgs
unit wt of cement = 1440 kg/m3

density = weight/volume = 50/1440 = 0.0347m3

if concrete grade is M20 and ratio is 1:1:2
1+1+2 = 4

cement = 135.92/4 = 33.98
33.98/0.0347 = 979.25 bags
1 cement bag = 50 kgs, so
979.25 bag = 979.25 * 50 = 48962.53 kgs

sand = 1* 33.98 = 33.98 m3
aggregate = 2*33.98 = 67.96 m3

for slab = 0.7 -1% of concrete volume (reinforcement provided )
for beam = 1 - 3%
for column = 1 - 5 %
for footing = 0.8 - 8%

in this problem = 135.92 m3 concrete
for slab = 135.92 * 0.007 = 0.95m3 volume reinforcement provided.

ans =
cement = 48962.53 kgs or 979.25 bags
sand = 33.98 m3
aggregate = 67.96 m3
for slab = 0.95m3 volume reinforcement provide

3 Answers   L&T,


In foundation design, while we do the base pressure check, we normally check if the attained pressure value is less than the GROSS BEARING CAPACITY of the soil which is the sum of net bearing capacity of soil and the overburden pressure. Actually, the overburden pressure acts against the net bearing capacity of the soil and I feel that we are actually increasing the bearing capacity value and doing the check. I feel that this is NOT right. Please clarify on this.
