Quantities of materials for the production of required quantity of
concrete of given mix proportions can be calculated by absolute
volume method. This method is based on the principle that the
volume of fully compacted concrete is equal to the absolute volume
of all the materials of concrete, i.e. cement, sand, coarse aggregates
and water.
A Concrete structure may consists of beams, slabs, columns and
foundations etc. based on type of structure. The volume of concrete
required for concrete structure can be calculated by summing up the
volumes of each structural member or each parts of members.
volume of a
rectangular cross
sectional member
can be calculated
as length x width x
height (or depth or
thickness). Suitable
formula shall be
used for di�erent
cross-sectional
shapes of
members.
