Good morning guys. Please help me check this quote sent by my engineer for Art work. Note it's for labor only. I'd be buying the materials needed

raymondFirstborn:


assuming he made use of the standard 1:2:4 ratio, i tell you 312bags is not on the high side for a 288sqm building.Making use of 6bags/cum .

Casting of beam, staircase & decking.

To cast decking(150mm thick) without beams & staircase you would need approximately 254bags.

for the floor beams we should be looking at 230 x 450mm beams.
so with beams & staircase inclusive@312bags its okay.

so 312bags if what your engineer is refering too is 1:2:4,then it is standard.

But if he its 1:2:3 he might as also not be wrong.You should find out why he is using 1:2:3 instead of 1:2:4.

timesup234:
i can even do it for 180k then the parapet 50k. I have done it a zillion times. You are a learner

Aventures:
Your analysis is great but a bit theoretical, if the floor is adequately reinforced, the volume of reinforcement should also be deducted from the overall volume you get. Also remember that at 6 bags per cubic meter for 1:2;4 is achievable at maximum compaction. Like I said the qty the guy used is a "bit" high no that it is crazily high. Such a Job should be delivered btw 280-300 bag max.
