External plastering quantity

Plastering for second floor.

= 11.60+ 9.80 + 10.80 + 4.5 + 2.9 + 2.3 + 4.2 + 2.3
= 48.4 m x 64 m  ……..( 64 meter is the height of building upto 2nd floor)
= 309.76 m2 ……..(square meter)

Deduction for actual area of plastering
Total area of plastering = total area of wall – number of openings

= 309.76 – (1.20 x 1.20) x 12 ……..(deduct window size)
= 309.76 – (17.28 x 2) ………..(for 2nd floor)
= 309.76 – 34.56
= 275.2 m2 ……(square meter)
= 275.2 – [(0.75 x 0.90) x 4 + (1.20 x 1.20) x 4]  …….(deduct ventilation)
= 275.2 – (2.7 + 5.76)
= 275.2 – (8.46 x 2)  ………( 2 nos. of ventilation)
= 275.2 – 16.92
= 258.28 m2   …..(square meter)

Plaster mortar proportion ( 1 : 4 )
Plastering thickness = 20 mm

Volume of plaster = area of wall x thickness of plaster
Volume of plaster = 258.28 x (20/1000)
Volume of plaster = 5.16 m3  ….(cubic meter)

30 % extra wet mortar is required for filling up joints in masonary and uneven surface.

Therefore, volume of mortar = 5.16 + [5.16 x (30/100)]
Volume of mortar = 6.70 m3  ….(cubic meter)

Dry volume is 25 % more than wet volume
Therefore, dry volume required = 6.70 + [6.70 x (25/100)]
Dry volume = 8.37 m3   …….(cubic meter)

Cement required
= 8.37 / 5
= 1.67 m3 x 30 bags
= 51 bags

Sand required
= 8.37 x 4
= 33.48 m3

= 33.48 / 2.83  ……….(convert in brass)
= 11.83 say 12 brass
