how to calculate the required qantities of cement, Sand and
aggrigate to prepare 1 Cum of concrete mix 1:2:4
Answer Posted / jayaraaj.arumugam
mix design 1:2:4; (1+2+4 = 7)
(using 20mm aggregate)
Volume of ingredients - 1.57 ( thump rule)
Aggregate - 4/7 * 1.57 = 0.89 Say 0.9 m3
sand - 2/7 * 1.57 = 0.448 say 0.45 m3
cement - 1/7 * 1.57 = 0.224 say 0.225 m3
weight of cement required - 0.225 * 1440 = 324 kg.
if any mistake please inform...

As per Kandal suggestions, we have implemented rolling starts on 140 (+/- 5) degrees and we kept 3 rollars to complete the rolling before falling 125 degrees and the Aggregate AIV is below 22. But When the DBM bed is being rolled 3rd high viabration, (Before 1 plain & low ,2 high Viabrations), the aggregate is getting sharp edge agg. projections are damaged. As the literature is said that, the VG-30 Grade having better control the temp. susceptibility than Penetration grade. if so we could not get this problem at site. But we are facing on site. let me know.
