How do you calculate the quantity of cement in PCC

 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
