Materials for 12 mm or half inch thick plastering in wall for 100 square meter

Materials for 12 mm or half inch thick plastering in wall for 100 square meter


  • First of all, we have to multiply 100 square meter surface with 12 mm.
  • 100 square meter x 0.012 m = 1.2 cubic meter. (12 mm can also be written as 0.012)
  • 1.2 cubic meter is wet mixed mortar for uniform thickness.
  • Add 30% in this value to fill up joints, uneven surfaces, etc., the quantity of mortar comes out 1.2 + 0.36 = 1.56 cubic meter.
  • Increasing by 25% the total dry volume will be 1.2+0.36+0.39 = 1.95 cubic meter or 2 cubic meter.
  • For cement sand mortar, cement = dry volume / ( sum of ratios) x numeral of cement.
  • For 1:4 cement sand mortar, cement will be 2/5 x 1 = 0.4 cubic meter.
  • For 1:4 cement sand mortar, sand will be 2/5 x 4 = 1.6 cubic meter.
  • In this way you can calculate the dry volume of any ratio of mortar ingredients.
