I want to know the req quantity of cement for plastering 300
sft in final coat with 12 mm. Any math involved? Plz help
Answer Posted / rafeek shehu ibrahim
Mixing ratio 1:5 12mm thickness
Add 25% for Unevenness volume of wet mortar
Add 30% for Dry mix Volume
so, 55% is to be added
=300/10.76*0.012
=0.334m3 wet mortar need for 300ft2/27.88m2(12mm thick)
so,Dry volume=0.334+0.334*55%
=0.517m3
red Cement=(volume of Dry material/summation of proportion)
----------------------------------------------
Volume of 1bag Cement
=(0.517/6)
--------
0.035(volume of 1 Bag of cement)
Answer =2.46Bags

My question is: whether or not I have to control the seismic load by base shear load which is manual calculation? (just for more clarification: I can control this by input the scale factor into Eartquake definition in Etabs) I would highly appreciate your answer.
