  1. How to Use a Concrete Calculator for a Perfect Concrete Mixture?

  2. Mixing concrete is a vital step in ensuring the longevity of the structure it is being used for. The right consistency of concrete mix promises durability. Being a mixture of cement, sand, gravel, and water, concrete has multiple applications. And with the variety of applications comes different variants in concrete mix. Keeping strength as the parameter, concrete ranges from C10 to C40. While C10 is the weakest, C40 is the strongest. However getting the right mix for your purpose can be sometimes tricky. Here comes the role of a concrete calculator. Below is the guide of how you can effectively use a concrete calculator as designed by iMix Concrete to get the perfect concrete mix.

  3. How to Use a Concrete Calculator? You can estimate your concrete requirement by calculating the cubic meter of each cavity that is to be filled with concrete. Your cavity might not get levelled up perfectly if you do not order concrete by volume. To calculate the amount of concrete you need, you must have a tape measure and an iMix Concrete calculator. Thereafter you need the measurement of the following parameters- Slab Measurement You can measure the volume of the slab by finding the following values- 1. Length- Length of slab’s longest side. 2. Width- Length of slab’s shortest side. 3. Height- Height from the bottom to the topmost part of the slab till where the concrete must be filled. Trenches Measurement Trench measurement is possible by calculating the below-stated parameters- 1. Length- Total length of the longest side of the trench in linear fashion. 2. Width- Width of trench’s side. 3. Height- Height of the trench from the bottom level to the topmost part till where you want to layer the concrete.

  4. Fence Posts Measurement You can deduce the volume of fence post by calculating the following- 1. Radius- Total length of the cavity from the centre to the edge. 2. Depth- Total depth of the cavity from the bottom to the topmost point. In Essence Mostly we end up either wasting concrete or not having enough of it. This happens because we do not have a clear idea of how much concrete is necessary for filling the required space. Manual calculation can sometimes lead to discrepancy in the amount of concrete and the area that is to be covered. This can only be resolved via precise calculation, which doesn’t leave any scope for manual errors. To avoid having such an issue, it’s better to measure the space thoroughly. Post taking precise measurements, you can put the value in the iMix concrete calculator to get the exact amount of concrete you would need to get the job done.
