How to calculate the no of bags required for 12mm thick 1:6
plastering?

Answer Posted / dinesh

Cement= 1 Sand = 6, assume W/C=0.4
Water = 0.4*1= 0.4

Total = 1+6+0.4=7.4

Wt per m3 of CM = 2400 kg
for 10 m2 = 1.2 cum CM reqd.

Cement required for 1 m3 = 2400/7.4 = 324.3 kg = 6.48 bags

so for 10m2 area of 12mm thick plaster = 1.2*6.48 = 7.78
Bags required.
