how to calculate 1:2:4 ratio concrete cement, sand, metal
and water please give me brief calculation
Answer Posted / nagori salim
For M15 - 1:2:4
Consider 1 cumec
Summation of M15 Proportion is 1+2+4 = 7
Quantities:
Cement = 1(cumec)/7(summation)
= 0.1428 cumec
= 0.1428/0.0347
= 4.11 = 5 bags
Sand = 4.11 * 2 = 8.22 cumec
Aggregate = 4.11 * 4 = 16.44 cumec
For W/C = 0.45 (Assumed)
Water = 0.45 * 4.11 = 1.85 ltrs
