Key points
- Uses regional per-sq-ft consumption benchmarks (Guna district).
- Cement 0.40 bags, steel 4.0 kg, bricks 8, sand 1.8 cft, aggregate 1.6 cft per sq ft.
Formula & how it works
Per sq ft benchmarks × built-up area × floors.
Adjust ±20% for BOQ-driven precision — this is a first-pass estimate.
Worked example
- 1000 sq ft × 1 floor standard → 400 bags cement, 4,000 kg steel, 8,000 bricks, 1,800 cft sand.
Expert tips & mistakes to avoid
- Always add a 5–7% wastage buffer — mid-slab shortages cost more than the buffer bags.
- For engineered members (RCC columns/beams), follow the structural drawing over any calculator.
- Order cement in tranches — bags older than 90 days lose strength.
- Confirm the current market rate on WhatsApp before finalising the budget — prices printed here are indicative only.
Frequently asked questions
Should I order everything at once?
+
No. Cement quality drops past 90 days. Order in tranches (foundation → superstructure → slab → finish).
What about doors, windows, plumbing?
+
Those are separate BOQ line items. WhatsApp us the drawing to get a full quotation.
