STONE MASONRY
a. Concrete = 40% of volume of stone masonry
Boulders = 60% of volume of stone masonry

b. Volume of concrete

Cement = volume of concrete x 17.90 + 3% (wastage factor)

Sand = volume of concrete x 1.00 + 5% (wastage factor)

GROUTED RIPRAP
a. Concrete = 30% of volume of stone masonry
Boulders = 70% of volume of stone masonry

b. Volume of concrete

Cement = volume of concrete x 13.00 + 3% (wastage factor)

Sand = volume of concrete x 1.00 + 5% (wastage factor)
