Mortar Quantity Calculator
Quantity Survey IS 2250:1981~1 min
Calculate cement and sand quantities for masonry mortar or plastering.
Formula
Cement = (Dry vol / Sum of ratios) × Cement ratio × 1440 / 50
Input Parameters
Results
Dry Volume
1.300m³
Cement
7.5bags (50 kg)
Sand
1.040m³
Step-by-Step Method
- 1Dry volume = Wet volume × 1.3 (for mortar).
- 2Cement = (Dry vol / Sum) × C ratio × 1440 / 50.
- 3Sand = (Dry vol / Sum) × S ratio.
Engineering Notes
- •Dry volume factor for mortar = 1.3 (different from concrete 1.54).
