plz tell.. how can we find weight(in kg) of 1 cum of m20
mix..? how can we find the ratio of cement sand and
agregate on site i.e if we given some amount of m20 mix
then hw we find the ratio..?

Answer Posted / ganesh

Dear one,
M20=1:1.5:3 Ratio and M15=1:2:4 all the calculation which given above is not as per Standard so pls post the right one because any one of juniors can follow it blindly,

OPC ( Mix ratio of 1:1.5:3 - M20) ORDINARY PORTLAND CEMENT
Volume - 1 + 1.5 + 3 = 5.5
Total volume of ingredients used = 1.57 Since we use volume batching, wet volume of concrete is 1.57 times the dry volume)
Volume of coarse aggregate required "(3/5.5) *1.57 = 0.856 cu.m
=0.856 * 35.314 = 30.24 cu. ft"
Volume of sand required "(1.5/5.5) * 1.57 = 0.428 cu.m
= 0.428 * 35.314 = 15.12 cu.ft"
Volume of cement required "(1/5.5)*1.57 = 0.2854 cu.m
=0.2854 * 1440 = 411 kgs
= (411/50) = 8.22 bags"
