How many Cement Bags Required for 200 Sq.ft Concrete Slab.


Cement Bags Required for 200 Sq.ft Concrete Slab.

Concrete Slab area = 200 Sq.ft

Assume Depth of Slab = 200 mm       

                                     = 0.2 m                                      

                                     = 0.65 ft. 

Volume of Slab = 200 X 0.65 = 130 cu.ft 

Cement content (as per IS)

Min. Cement Content = 320 kg/cu.m 

Max. Cement Content = 450 kg/cu.m

1 cu.m = 35.3 cu.ft 128 cu.ft = 130/35.3 = 3.682 cu.m 

: Taking 400 kg/cu.m as Cement Content Casually Taken Total Cement Content 

= 400 X 3.682 = 1472.8 kg. 

1 Bag Cement Wt. is 50 kg

1472.8 / 50 = 29.456 Bags 

Approx 29 Bags Required for 200 Sq.ft Concrete Slab.

Medlum Density Fibre Board (MDF)

Medium Density Fibre Board (MDF)  MDF IS made from wood and other lignocellulose material refined into fibres and reconstituted with a resin binder. Row wood material is normally a single species wood. MDF has homogeneous structure with uniform density, texture and properties throughout, no identifiable grain can be seen at edge, end or face. There are no internal voids or pits and there is no variation in the surface hardness. Unlike plywood MDF doesn't delaminate. It has much higher strength than particle board. Since edges are totally smooth and uniform, costly tipping or beading with strips of wood required for plywood and particle board is not essential. It can be carved, grooved or embossed just like any timber. The surface of MDF is totally smooth and accepts all kinds of finishes - paints, varnishes and laminates. One such type of famous board in the market is 'Duratuff" . It comes in both interior and exterior grade. Duratuff prelaminated boards are also avail...

How to Calculate Estimation of Wall Plaster.

Assume: Wall = 1m Length, 1m height Mortar Ratio = 1:6 Plaster Thickness = 12 mm =0.012 m Constants: Density of Cement = 1440 kg/m3 1 cum = 35.3147 cuft. So: Volume of Mortar = 1 x  1 x 0.012 = 0.012 cum. (Wet Volume) Dry Volume of Mortar = 0.012 x 1.30 = 0.0156 cum.   Quantity of Cement = 1/7 x 0.0156 x 1440 = 3.21 kg = 0.064 Bags Quantity of Sand     = 6/7 x 0.0156 x 35.3147 = 0.47 cuft. The recommended  thickness  of cement  plastering  is given below. Recommended  thickness  of  plastering  for brick  walls  is 12 MM, 15 MM or 20 MM. 12 MM  thick  cement  plaster  is done where the plain surface of brick masonry is  plastered . 15 MM cement  plaster  is required on the rough side of 9” and 4.5”  wall .

How to Calculate Cost and Quantity of 1000 Sq.ft Concrete Slab?

Cost and Quantity of 1000 Sq.ft Concrete Slab 1000 Sq.ft = 92.93 Sq.mt. Thickness of Slab = 0.150 Sq.mt. Volume of Slab = 92.93 X 0.150 = 13.939 cu.mt. Beam Volume = 20% o f concrete Vol.                         =13.939 X 20/100 = 2.7878 cu.mt. Total Slab Volume = 13.939 + 2.7878 = 16.768 = 17 cu.mt. We know :- M20 Grade of Concrete (1 : 1.5 : 3)  Concrete  Quantity  of 1 cu.mt. Cement = 8 bags   Sand = 15 cu.ft  aggregate = 30 cu.ft  1 cu.mt Concrete Cost =  4,550 Rs. So :- M20 Grade of Concrete (1 : 1.5 : 3)  Concrete  Quantity  of 1000 cu.mt. Cement = 17 X 8 = 136 bags  Sand = 17 X 15 = 255 cu.ft  aggregate = 30 X 17 = 510 cu.ft 1000 cu.mt Concrete Cost =  77,350 Rs. Steel Quantity = 1% of concrete Vol.                          =17 X 1/100 =...
