(10'x10')10mm thick ratio 1:5. wht"s the formula?

Answer Posted / abid nawaz

10' x 10' x 0.0333'
3.33 cft
Dry metarial in one cft = 1.27 cft
3.33 x 1.27
4.229 cft
sum of ratio = 1+5 = 6
quantity of cement = 1*4.229/6
= 0.7048 cft
volume of one bag = 1.25 cft
=0.7048/1.25
=0.56 cement bag
quantity of sand = 5*4.229/6
= 3.524 cft
