What is the 1.54 Constant for Concrete in Quantity Survey

What is the 1.54 Constant for Concrete in Quantity Survey

Hello Engineers’ In This Article we will discuses about the topic of What is the topic of 1.54 Constant for Concrete in Quantity Survey.

Example:-

We need to calculate the dry mortar for one cum Concrete

We have 1m x 1m x 1m = 1 cum (cubic meter)

One cum is wet Volume
Now we need to convert the 1 cum wet volume into 1cum dry volume

Dry volume = wet volume + 54% of  the wet volume

• Type Of Concretes And Unit Weight

• Building Design And Reinforcement Concrete Type

So
Dry volume = 1 + ((55/100) x 1)
Dry volume = 1 + (.54 x 1)
Dry volume = 1 + .54
Dry volume = 1.54 cum
when you need to calculate
Dry volume of the Concrete than just multiply wet volume with 1.54 to calculate the dry mortar.
