Cement Quantity Calculator
Concrete IS 456:2000~1 min
Calculate the number of cement bags required for plastering, brickwork, or concrete.
Formula
Cement bags = (Volume × Cement ratio / Sum of ratios × 1440) / 50
Input Parameters
Results
Wet Volume
0.2400m³
Dry Volume
0.3696m³
Cement Bags (50 kg)
1.5bags
Sand Required
0.317m³
Step-by-Step Method
- 1Calculate wet volume = Area × Thickness.
- 2Dry volume = Wet volume × 1.54.
- 3Cement = (Dry vol / Sum of ratios) × Cement ratio × 1440 / 50.
- 4Sand = (Dry vol / Sum of ratios) × Sand ratio.
Engineering Notes
- •Standard plaster thickness: 12 mm (1:6 mix) for internal, 20 mm (1:4) for external.
