50 kg bags
Thumb-rule only. Actual bags depend on slab thickness, beam density, mix design, plaster thickness and openings. Replace the bags-per-1,000 figure with your engineer’s BOQ when drawings exist. Confirm bag type (PPC/OPC), manufacturing date and delivered count before payment.
How this estimate works
Default 180 bags / 1,000 sq. ft. is a planning mid-band for typical RCC residential frames with plaster. Heavy beam grids or thick rafts need more; light load-bearing work needs less.
Scope multiplies cement. Plaster and screed add bags beyond pure structural concrete—use the scope control so structure-only budgets do not under-order finishing cement.
Buy in pour packages. Order against the next slab or plaster phase rather than the whole house at once—fresh cement and storage matter in monsoon Nepal.
Track the real count. Log every accepted delivery in GharNaksa so the planning estimate and site stock stay comparable floor by floor.
Practical guide
Understand the numbers before you use them on site
Read the related guide for assumptions, ordering tips and ways to compare the estimate with actual site records.
Yes. The Cement Bags for House works in your browser without an account. You can install GharNaksa when you want to track the real project costs, payments and progress.
Can I use this result as a final quotation or professional approval?
No. It is a planning estimate based on the information you enter. Verify rates, quantities, drawings, local requirements and contract terms with the appropriate qualified professional before making a commitment.
How do I track the estimate during construction?
Use GharNaksa to record actual material deliveries, labor, payments, bills and site photos. Comparing the estimate with a dated site record helps reveal cost differences early.
