Calculate
quantity of cement, sand, and aggregate required to build a concrete slab of size 6m x 6m x 0.15m


For M10 grade, the Cement : Sand : Aggregate ratio is 1:3:6
Cement quantity = (Dry volume of concrete x Cement ratio) / (Sum of ratios)
Cement quantity calculation = (8.316 cubic meters x 1) / (1+3+6) = 0.8316 cubic meters
Number of cement bags calculation: Cement quantity / Volume of one cement bag
Number of cement bags required: 0.8316 cubic meters / 0.035 cubic meters = approximately 24 cement bags
(volume of 50kg cement bag = 0.035 cubic meters )
For M10 grade, the Cement : Sand : Aggregate ratio is 1:3:6
Calculation of sand quantity: Sand quantity = (Dry volume of concrete x Sand ratio) / (Sum of ratios) Sand quantity calculation =(8.316 cubic meters x 3) / (1+3+6) = 2.4948 cubic meters.
For M10 grade, the Cement : Sand : Aggregate ratio is 1:3:6
Aggregate quantity = (Dry volume of concrete x Aggregate ratio) / (Sum of ratios)
Aggregate quantity calculation = (8.316 cubic meters x 6) / (1+3+6) = 4.9696 cubic meters
To make a concrete slab of size 6m x 6m x 0.15m and M10 grade, you will require approximately
24 cement bags,
2.4948 m3 of sand, and
4.9696 m3 of aggregate.
