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.

This difference comes due to the mix design of the concrete
At every place the mix design depends upon the material & material source so if PWD is considering the cement consumption that means their mix design shows this cement consumption
