Determine the volume of coarse aggregate (in m 3 units), volume of fine aggregate (in m 3 units) and cement (in kg units), respectively, for preparing 1 m 3 of 1 : 2 : 4 (by volume) of concrete. (Assume 1 m 3 of freshly mixed concrete corresponds to 1.54 m 3 dry volume of concrete. Take 1 m 3 of cement is equal to 1500 kg by weight.)

Correct Answer is : 0.88 m3; 0.44 m3; 330 kg

Determine the volume of coarse aggregate (in m³ units), volume of fine aggregate (in m³ units) and cement (in kg units), respectively, for preparing 1 m³of 1 : 2 : 4 (by volume) of concrete. (Assume 1 m³ of freshly mixed concrete corresponds to 1.54 m³ dry volume of concrete. Take 1 m³ of cement is equal to 1500 kg by weight.)

0.44 m³; 0.22 m³; 165 kg
1.32 m³; 0.61 m³; 412.5 kg
0.96 m³; 0.48 m³; 247.5 kg
