MEASURMENT OF CEMENT QUANTITY IN MASONARY MORTOR

CLAY BRICK MASONARY

- FOR A WALL THICKNESS OF 240mm
+ SIZE OF BRICK pcs IS (240X120X70) mm, MORTOR THICKNESS IS ASSUMED TO BE 15mm,
WASTE IN CEMENT MORTOR IS ASSUMED TO BE 10%.
So, (100/ (7+1.5) +1)*24*100*1.5*110% = 51,480. cucm.
FOR 1 cum BRICK MASONARY = 100/24*51480 = 206000 cucm. =0.206 cum
+ FOR A MORTOR MIX OF 1:3 (CEMENT:SAND)
QTY OF CEMENT = 0.206*1/4*1500 = 75. kg.
QTY OF SAND = 0.206*3/4 = 0.1545 cum.

CONCRETE BLOCKS MASONARY

FOR A WALL THICKNESS OF 200mm
+ SIZE OF CONCRETE BLOCK pcs IS (400X200X200) mm, MORTOR THICKNESS IS ASSUMED
TO BE 15mm, WASTE IN CEMENT MORTOR IS ASSUMED TO BE 10%.
So, (100/ 20 +1)*20*100*1.5*110% = 19,800. cucm.
FOR 1 sqm CONCRETE BLOCK MASONARY = 19,800. cucm. = 0.0198. cum.
+ FOR A MORTOR MIX OF 1:3 (CEMENT:SAND)
QTY OF CEMENT = 0.0198*1/4*1500 = 7.5 kg.
QTY OF SAND = 0.0198*3/4 = 0.01485 cum.
FOR A WALL THICKNESS OF 100mm
HALF QTY IS TO BE USED.
