TO DERIVE THE QUANTITY OF INGREADIENT MATERIAL FOR 1 CUBIC METER OF CONCRETE FOR M-15 GRADE
Proportion for M-15 Concrete is 1:2:4
For Easy Calculations Take/Assume 10 Cu. m. of concrete.
Proportion
10 X 1.52 = 15.2
(Here 1.52 is the dry volume factor)
A) Quantity of Cement =
For 10 cum of concrete
(1/ 1+2+4)= 0.143 X 15.2 = 2.17 Cum
1 Bag of Cement = 35 Liters = 0.035
Quantity of Cement Bags = 2.17/.035 = 62.10 Bags
for 1 cum of concrete = 6.21 Bags
B) Quantity of Fine Aggregates/Sand
For 10 cum of concrete
(2/ 1+2+4)=0.285 X 15.2=4.33 Cum
Quantity of Sand = 4.33 Cum
for 1 cum of concrete = 0.43 Cum
C) Quantity of Coarse Aggregates/ Gitti
For 10 cum of concrete
(4/ 1+2+4)= 0.571 X 15.2 = 8.68 Cum
Quantity of Gitti = 8.68 Cum
for 1 cum of concrete = 0.87 Cum
Summary =
A) Cement Bags= 6.210 Bags
B) Fine Agg./Sand=0.43 Cum
C) Coarse Agg./Gitti = 0.87 Cum

1 cum of 1:1:4 concrete
Dry volume equal is 1.52
Cement equal is 1/6*28.8*1.52 =7.2 bags cements
= 364.8 kg cements

As per thumb rule cement required per 1 cum of M20 concrete is 411Kg/cum(1.57/5.5=0.285cum of cement i.e 0.285*1440=411Kg).But as per PWD rate analysis cement required is 347Kg/cum.the difference is 64Kg.This kind of difference is coming every grade of concrete.Can you give perfect suggestion regarding this.
i just want to know how much require sand and cement for 1 sq.mt including wastage. Please guide me as soon as possible.
