I need to plaster an area of 1500 square meter. how much
quantity of cement and sand need for this.?

Answer Posted / mohammed aijaz hussain

Let the thickness of plastering be 12 mm and CM(1:4)

Volume of wet mortar = 12 mm X 1500 sq.m.
= 18 cu.m.

Add 20% for depressions, joints and wastage
= 3.6 + 18 = 21.6 cu.m.

Volume of Dry Mortar = 1.3 X 21.6 = 28.08 cu.m.

Cement required = 1/5 X 28.08 = 5.62 cu.m.
= 160.6 Bags

Sand required = 4/5 X 28.08 = 22.46 cu.m

Is This Answer Correct ?    49 Yes 5 No
