How we calculate the cement for the M 15 normal concrete with
aggregate size is 40 mm ?

Answer Posted / n3

for M15 proportion is 1:3:6
assume wet volume 1 m3 of work
to produce 1 m3 of wet volume we need 1.54 dry volume
cement qty=1.54/1+3+6=0.154 m3
hence no of bag=0.154*1440/50=4.44 nos
sand qty=0.154*3=0.462 m3
agg qty=0.154*6=0.924 m3


40 mm is max size of agg & it is the std value

Is This Answer Correct ?    4 Yes 10 No
