Material required for 4000 cft concrete with ratio 1:2:4?

4000 cft=113.35 m3
conversion =4000/(3.28 x 3.28 x 3.28) = 113.35 m3
For 1 m3 concrte:
= 1.52/ratio
=1.52/(1+2+4)
=0.217 m3
So Volume of cement for 1 m3 concrete is 0.217 m3
Volume of cement bag is =1.25 cft
unit weight of cement = 1440 kg/m3
1 bag cement wt = 50 kg
volume of cement bag is = 50/1440 = 0.0347 m3
how many cement bag is required ?
=total volume of cemet/ 1 bag cement volume
= 0.217/0.0347
=6.25 bag is required
our total concrete quantity is = 113.35
= 113.35 x 6.25
= 708 bag is required
Fine aggregate is 2 part of cement
=2 x 0.217 x 113.35 = 49.1 m3
Coarse aggregate is 4 part of cement
= 4 x 0.217 x 113.35 = 98.38 m3
Note: In rcc concrete there is no deduction for steel quantity
I hope u all understand my calculation
thanking you,
