Question
1. From the following figure, find the number of 4" x 8" x 16" (10x20x40 cm)
concrete hollow blocks to construct the wall. Solve using Fundamental and Area
Method. Show complete solution.
2. With the same problem from #1, determine how many bags of cement (40
kg/bag) and sand needed using class "B" mortar. Use 12mm uniform thickness of
the mortar. Solve using Volume, Area and Hundred Block Method. Show complete
solution.
3. With the same problem from #1,
determine how many bags of cement
(40 kg/bag) and sand needed using
class "B" mortar. Use 16mm uniform
thickness of the plaster. Solve using
3.00 m
Volume and Area method. Show
complete solution.
NOTE: For your answer, rounding of
decimal places: 0.1-0.4 round up to 0.5
and 0.5-0.9 round up to nearest whole
number - for sand and gravel; always
round up to nearest whole # for cement.
