For 12mm thick and cement plastering 1:6 on 100sqm new Brick work the quantity of cement required is

Answer Posted / bugti.ghalib@yahoo.com

V=100*0.012 = 1.2 cum
in plaster volume increases by 33% then
dry volume = 1.2*1.33 = 1.596 cum
Cement = 1.596*(1/7)*1440 = 328.32 kg
hint: 1440 kg/m3 is the density of cement, 1 is the ratio of cement and 7 is the total sum of ratios
No. of bags = 328.32/50 = 6.56 bags ie.one bag of cement= 50 kg
sand = 1.596*(6/7)*35.28 = 48.26 cft ie. 35.28 = (3.28)3
