KAILASHDEV INFRASTRUCTURE Interview Questions and Answers

To find out the steel weight, calculate the volume of steel and multiply it by the density of steel.

• Calculate the volume of steel by multiplying the length, width, and height of the steel member.

• Determine the density of steel, which is typically around 7850 kg/m^3.

• Multiply the volume of steel by the density to get the weight of steel.

The density of cement varies depending on the type of cement being used.

• The density of ordinary Portland cement is around 1440 kg/m³

• The density of white cement is around 2300 kg/m³

• The density of rapid hardening cement is around 1250 kg/m³

• The density of low heat cement is around 1400 kg/m³

Calculation of mortar quantity

• Mortar quantity is calculated based on the volume of bricks or blocks being used.

• The ratio of cement, sand, and water in the mortar mix is also important.

• The standard ratio for mortar mix is 1:4 (cement:sand).

• The water-cement ratio should be around 0.5.

• The quantity of mortar required can be calculated using the formula: Volume of bricks/blocks x 0.0015.

• This formula assumes a mortar joint t
