How To Calculate Quantity of Blocks ?

How To Calculate Quantity of Blocks.

Volume of wall = L x B x H

= 6 x 0.152 x 3 = 2.736 cum.

Volume of One Block Without Mortar = 0.405 x 0.152 x 0.200 = 0.012312 cum.

Volume of One Block With Mortar = 0.430 x 0.152 x 0.225 = 0.014706 cum.

No of Blocks = Volume of Wall / Volume of One Block With Mortar

= 2.736 / 0.014706 = 186 Nos Blocks

Volume of Total Blocks = No's of Blocks X Volume of One Block Without Mortar

= 186 x 0.012312 = 2.290032 cum.

Volume of Mortar = Total Volume - Volume of Blocks

Wet Volume = 2.736 - 2.290032 = 0.445968 cum.

Dry Volume = Wet Volume X 1.27

= 0.445968 x 1.27 = 0.56637936 cum

Cement Mortar Ratio = 1:6 Ratio

Cement = Ratio of Cement X Dry Volume / Sum of Ratio

= 1 x 0.56637936 / 7 = 0.08091134 cum.

Bags = 0.08091134/0.035 = 2.31 Bags

Sand = 6 x 0.56637936 / 7 = 0.48546802 cum.

Say = 0.5 cum.

MAKE A GREEN BUILDING.

What is a Green Building? Procrastinate no longer. The time to build your green and sustainable home is now. Like so many of us, you may have been sitting back and dreaming about building a new home so that it perfectly meshes with the environment. It would be a home that is as eco-friendly and green as it is cozy, functional, and smart to live in. This can be done and the time can be now. No longer is it necessary to compromise comfort in order to be environmentally conscious. Because our world is rapidly changing, often in ways that are less than desirable, it is up to each and every one of us to make positive changes. And those changes can begin in that one area we all have the most control over: our home. The concept of a green building was developed in the 1970s in response to the energy crisis and people’s growing concerns about the environment. A Green Building, also known as a sustainable building , is a structure that is designed, built, renovated, o...

MACHINE FOUNDATION.

MACHINE FOUNDATION. The design of machine foundation involves careful study of the vibration characteristics of the foundation system. Relevant data for the design and construction of the foundation of machine should be obtained from the manufacturer of the machine , prior to the start design. All parts of machine foundation should be designed for maxim stresses due to the worst combination of vertical loads, torque, longitudinal and transverse forces, stresses due to temperature variation and the foundation dead load. In case, the foundation layout is partly built up of beam and column construction , straight bars should be provided both at top and bottom of the beams and the spacing of the stirrups should be close. The main foundation block should have the designed thickness and should be reinforced both at top and bottom even if the reinforcements are not required from design considerations. Machine foundations are special types of foundations required fo...

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...
