On drawings, everything looks perfect.

On site, suddenly you hear:

❌ Concrete feels too harsh

❌ Honeycombing after shutter removal

❌ Extra cement bags consumed

❌ Strength not achieved as expected

 

And then comes the usual sentence:

👉 “Ratio toh 1:2:4 hi tha…”

 

The truth?

Most concrete failures don’t happen because engineers don’t know the ratio.

They happen because volume calculations are guessed, not calculated.

 

⚠️ Common site pain points:

• Dry volume factor (1.54) ignored

• Wrong distribution of materials

• Cement measured in bags, sand in brass, aggregate in trolley

• Manual calculations done in a hurry

• Last-minute adjustments based on “experience”

 

Concrete doesn’t fail on paper —

It fails between paper and practice.

 

That’s why I built this simple, practical tool 👇

🔗 Cement, Sand & Aggregate Ratio Calculator

multicalculators.online/cement-sand-aggregate-ratio-calcu...

 

✅ Converts compacted volume to dry volume

✅ Breaks material accurately as per mix ratio

✅ Saves cement bags, cost, and rework

✅ Useful for site engineers, contractors & students

 

No confusion. No guesswork.

Just clean numbers you can trust on site.

 

Because good concrete is not about remembering formulas —

It’s about using the right calculations at the right time.
