🏗️SITE ENGINEER’S QUICK CALCULATION GUIDE
🌟A handy reference for preliminary estimation of common construction materials.
1️⃣ Concrete Quantity
Concrete Quantity = 0.036 × Built-up Area (m²)
2️⃣ Shuttering Quantity
Shuttering Quantity = 2.4–2.5 × Slab Area (m²)
3️⃣ Plywood Sheets
No. of Plywood Sheets = Shuttering Quantity × 0.22
Standard sheet: 2440 × 1220 × 18 mm
4️⃣ Battens
No. of Battens = No. of Plywood Sheets × 19.62
5️⃣ Nails
Nails = 0.075 × Shuttering Quantity (kg)
6️⃣ Binding Wire
Binding Wire = 0.075 × Shuttering Quantity (kg)
7️⃣ Shuttering Oil
Shuttering Oil = 0.065 × Shuttering Quantity
Approx. 1 litre for every 15 m²
8️⃣ Steel Quantity
Approximate values shown:
• 4.425 kg/sq ft — building height up to 1st–3rd slab
• 6.625 kg/sq ft — above 3rd slab
💡 Important: These are preliminary estimation values only.
⏺Actual quantities can vary depending on structural design, member sizes, reinforcement detailing, formwork system, wastage and site conditions.
⏺Always verify quantities with the approved structural drawings and project specifications.
