how to calculate sand, cement quantity for plastering (1:5)? what"s the formula?..

Answer / raja j

mortar ratio =1:5
assume = 12mm as plastering thickness
calculating 10m2 of plastering area:-

volume=10*.012=.12m3
add 15 % for wastages = =.12*1.15=.138m3

so sand required for 10m2=.138m3
cement required for 10 m2=(1440/5)*.138
cement=39.7kg
