How it works

For a mix ratio like 1:2:4 (cement:sand:gravel), cement is 1 of 7 parts. Cement volume = mix volume × parts/7. Weight uses ≈1500 kg/m³ of cement.

Worked example

1 m³ of 1:2:4 mix needs 1/7 m³ of cement ≈ 214 kg ≈ 9 bags of 25 kg.

Recommendations

  • Use 1:2:4 (general concrete) or 1:3 (mortar)
  • Add a plasticizer for better workability
  • Never exceed the water ratio stated by the manufacturer

Tips & advice

  • Store cement bags off the ground and dry
  • Mix the dry ingredients before adding water
  • Use fresh cement — it loses strength after ~3 months
