0.125 - 0.25 Fine, 0.25 - 0.5 medium,0.5-1 coarse, 1 - 2 very coarse.

@Manoj.

Height of bag - 0.18m (or) 18 cm.
And area - 0.3sqm (or) 3000 sq cm.
So the volume of bag = 0.18 * 0.3 = 0.054 cum,
Volume of room - 54 * 2.7= 145.8 cum.

No of bags = volume of room (warehouse)/volume of one cement bag.
= 54 * 2.7/(0.18 * 0.3),
= 145.8/0.054,
= 2700.

How did you calculate cement bag required? Can you explain @patel.

@Mantosh Kumar

The answer is 2700 bags.

If a warehouse house area 54 m square and height is 2.7m then how many cement bags are store in a warehouse? Can anyone answer this?

Fine aggregates range from a FM of 2.00 to 4.00, and coarse aggregates smaller than 38.1 mm range from 6.50 to 8.00. Combinations of fine and coarse aggregates have intermediate values.

Fine sand ranges 2.2-2.5?

What we say 2.6 mm?
