How to calculate cement and sand quantities in cement mortar
As 1:1,1:2,1:4,1:6 ?

Answer Posted / santosh singh

the procedure to calculate quanity is given below

eg. if cement mortar ratio is ( 1:6)

suppose 1 cum of cement mortar work is to be done

then add 60% extra for voids & cavities in case of plaster

then total volume of work = 1 + 60/100 x1 =1.6 cum
quantity of cement in cum = 1.6 / (1+6)= 1.6/7=0.228 cum
but as we know cement is available in market in 50 kg
bags (volume of 50kg cement is = 0.0347 cum)

thu quantity of cement in bags = 0.228/0.0347= 6.57 bags

quantity of sand in cum= 0.228 x 6 =1.36 cum



eg. if cement mortar ratio is ( 1:4)

suppose 1 cum of cement mortar work is to be done

then add 60% extra for voids & cavities in case of plaster

then total volume of work = 1 + 60/100 x1 =1.6 cum
quantity of cement in cum = 1.6 / (1+4)= 1.6/5=0.32 cum
but as we know cement is available in market in 50 kg
bags (volume of 50kg cement is = 0.0347 cum)

thu quantity of cement in bags = 0.32/0.0347= 9.22 bags

quantity of sand in cum= 0.32 x 4 =1.28 cum

this is exact procedure.you can calculate for any ratio of
cement & mortar
