How to calculate Cement Sand in Plaster
How to calculate Cement Sand in Plaster
=====================================
Hi guys today i am going to tell you about above topic so lets start-
where -1= Cement
6 = Sand
Thickness of Plaster = 12 mm
Note-
1- Cement Mortar ratio for wall plastering 1 :6.
1- Cement Mortar ratio for wall plastering 1 :6.
2- Cement mortar ratio for ceiling plastering 1 :4.
3- Plastering thickness should not be more than 12 - 15mm
3- Plastering thickness should not be more than 12 - 15mm
if there is need for an additional coat do not do that at one go.
4 - Ensure you are using a good quality
cement.
5 - Must check the manufacturing date of cement it should not be more than 3 months old.
Volume of Plaster = H x L x T
If height of plaster = 2 meter
Length = 2 meter
thickness = 12 mm ➢0.012Meter
Volume of Plaster =2x2x0.012
Volume = 0.048 cub Meter -- Note -this is called wet volume
Wet Volume = 0 .048 cub meter
Dry Volume of Plaster = 0.048 x 1.33
= 0.0638 CubM
CEMENT ➤
= (0.0638x1440x1)/7 where 1 = cement ratio 7 = sum of ratio
= 13.12Kg
Convert into bag = 13.12/50
=0.26 Bag.
SAND ➤
= (0.0638x35.31x6)/7
where 6 = ratio of sand 7= sum of ratio
where 6 = ratio of sand 7= sum of ratio
=1.93 Cub Ft.
