How to Calculate Quantity of Cement, Sand, and Aggregate For Example,         Length of Concrete = 10 Ft          Height of Concrete  = 10 Ft         Width of Concrete    =  5 Ft  Volume of Concrete = Length × width × Height                                       =  10×10×5 = 500 CFT Volume dry Concrete = 500×1.54 = 750 CFT       Ratio = 1:3:6       Sum of Ratio = 1+3+6 = 10  Determine of cement Quantity =  1/10 × 750 = 75 CFT ,   75/1.25 = 60 Begs cement Determine of Sand Quantity = 3/10 ×750 = 225 CFT  Determine of Aggregate Quantity = 6/10 ×750 = 450 CFT
