Given the fact that the minimum thickness may not be less than 30 mm this thickness allows to avoid cracking of the screed and its crumbling and considering the weight of the insulation and the finishing coating one square meter of floor will weigh about 70 75 lbs.
Floor screed weight.
Floor screed thickness find out the minimum and maxium depths for different screed products on various types of floor build up.
Cube m cement weighs about 1300 kg cubic meters.
At 100 square meters.
Input your projects dimensions into the screed volume calculator below and you have your screed volumes.
A floor screed is usually a cementitious material made from a 1 3 or 1 4 5 ratio of cement to sharp sand.
Mix ratio of sand and cement screed for floor varies based on the intended use of the screed.
There are many proprietary screeds on the market and information about these can be obtained from the manufacturer.
This screed volume calculator will work out the approximate quantity of screed that you would need to order based on the measurements that you supply.
All laterlite screeds can be mixed by traditional means in a cement mixer or mixed and pumped in a pneumatic floor screed conveyor machinery for easy transport to the required floor.
Limitations on imposed dead loads will determine the density of the lwc to be used.
We would always recommend a little extra to allow for waste and small changes in depth.
M area you need 1300 0 5 650 kg of cement and 1600 2 3200 kg of sand.
M of sand 1600 kg.
So for 1 square.
In bags usually 50 kg.
The bulk density of screed is 22kn m.
Simply multiply by thethickness to get a weight 22kn m 22000n m 1 newton mass x acceleration kg g g is acceleration dueto gravity on earth g is.
Light weight screed density the lightweight concrete has densities varying from 600 kg m to 1600 kg m and the type of the lightweight concrete required depends upon the application requirements such as load bearing capacity required presence of point loads exposure conditions surface finish tiles carpet vinyl flooring etc.
Therefore a suitable type of cement shall be selected and sand needs to.
Added to that cement type grade of aggregate and the method of storage of screed material influence the mix ratio to a certain extent.
It may be applied onto either a solid in situ concrete ground floor slab or onto a precast concrete floor unit.
