How do you calculate the quantity of cement in PCC ?
CEMENT QUANTITY IN M 10 :-
Step 1:-
Mix proportion of concrete
For example M 10 = 1:3:6 (cement : sand : aggregate)
Step 2:-
- Dry volume = Wet volume x 1.54 (You can also take it as 1.50 to 1.55, But it became standard practice to considering 1.54 as multiplication factor)
- Quantity of cement or sand or aggregate = (Dry volume x cement or sand or aggregate ratio)/(sum of ratio)
- Density of cement = 1440 kg/m3
- 1 bag = 50 kg cement
Step 3:-
Dry volume = 1 x 1.54 = 1.54 m3
Cement = (1.54 x 1) /(1+3+6) = 1.54/10 = 0.154 m3
Weight of cement = 0.154 x 1440 =221.76 kg
No. of bag = 221.76 / 50 = 4.4352 bags
