CONCRETE

MIX FOR VARIOUS USES

Based on 50kg cement :


Material required per cubic metre of mixed concrete :


Example : Material Breakdown mixing concrete on site (By hand) :

Cost per m3 Concrete (1:1.5:3)

• Material cost

• 1m3 Cement (28 bags) = RM13.50 x 28 bag = RM378.00
• 1 1/2 m3 Sand = RM27.00 x 1.50 m3 = RM40.50
• 3m3 aggregate = RM60 x 3 m3 = RM180.00

• Total = RM598.50

• Add : 50% for shrinkage, wastage = RM299.25

• Total Material cost for 5.5 m3 = RM897.75
• Total Material cost for 1 m3 = RM163.23

• Labour Cost

• Mixing 1m3 = 1.5 hours x (RM40.00 / 8 hours) = RM7.50
  
• Placing 1m3 = 5 hours x (RM40.00 / 8 hours) = RM25.00

• Total labour cost per m3 = RM32.50
  

• Cost for concrete per m3 for (1:1.5:3) concrete = RM163.23 + RM32.50 = RM195.73
