how to calculate 1:2:4 ratio concrete cement, sand, metal
and water please give me brief calculation
Answer Posted / chetan khairnar
Note: For 1m3 wet concrete = 1.52m3 dry concrete approximately
SP.Wt of concrete= 1440 kg/m3 (or) 1.44 t/m3
1 bag of cement = 50 Kg
Example:- for 20 m3 volume of concrete.
a) Quantity of cement required = (1:2:4)
=1/(1+2+4) x 1.52 × 20 = 4.14m3 x 1440/50 =119.26 bags
b)Quantity of Sand required = (1:2:4)
=2/(1+2+4)×1.52x20=8.28m3 OR =4.14 x 2=8.28 m3.
c)Quantity of course aggregate = (1:2:4)
=4/(1:2;4) x 1.52 x20 = 16.56m3 OR =4.14 x 4= 16.56m3.
If qty. calculate in Kg just multiply by its Sp. wt of sand
or aggregate.
