how to calculate 1:2:4 ratio concrete cement, sand, metal
and water please give me brief calculation
Answer Posted / buhari adam nuhu kaakamu
NOTE:
1 CuM of concrete
Avg. final mix (Decnce) (AFM) = 1.52
Total proportion (TP) 1+2+4 = 7
Unit weight of cement =1440 KG/CuM
Solution.
Cement quantity required = AFM/TP
= 1.52/7
= 0.217 CuM
Cement is measure by weight
So therefore you multiply 0.217 by unit weight of cement
Cement quantity = 0.217 * 1440 = 312.48 KG.
Number of Cement bags = 312.48 / 50
= 6.2496 bags
Sand quantity = TP * 2
= 0.217 * 2
= 0.434 CuM
Stone quantity = TP * 4
= 0.217 * 4
= 0.868 CuM
Quantity of materials
Cement Bags = 6.2496 Bags
Sand = 0.434 CuM
Stone = 0.868 CuM

In foundation design, while we do the base pressure check, we normally check if the attained pressure value is less than the GROSS BEARING CAPACITY of the soil which is the sum of net bearing capacity of soil and the overburden pressure. Actually, the overburden pressure acts against the net bearing capacity of the soil and I feel that we are actually increasing the bearing capacity value and doing the check. I feel that this is NOT right. Please clarify on this.
