# BoQ Calculations Document

## Foundation Calculations

1. **Excavation (Volume):**

- 230mm walls: 19.55 m³ = Length x Width x Depth

- 115mm walls: 2.34 m³ = Length x Width x Depth

2. **Concrete for Footings (Volume):**

- 230mm walls: 19.55 m³ = Length x Width x Depth

- 115mm walls: 2.34 m³ = Length x Width x Depth

3. **Sand Blinding (150mm thick):**

- 230mm walls: 4.89 m³ = Length x Width x Thickness

- 115mm walls: 0.59 m³ = Length x Width x Thickness

## Superstructure Wall Calculations

1. **Net Wall Area:**

- 230mm walls: 111.93 m² = (Length x Height) - Openings

- 115mm walls: 23.43 m² = (Length x Height) - Openings

2. **Plastering:**

- Internal/External Areas: 135.36 m² = Net wall area x 2 sides (less openings)

3. **Painting:**

- Internal/External Areas: 135.36 m² (three coats applied to plastered surfaces).

## Flooring Calculations

1. **Concrete Slab Volume:**

- 14.37 m³ = Area x Thickness (150mm)

2. **Cement Screed Volume:**


- 2.40 m³ = Area x Thickness (25mm)

3. **Tiling Area:**

- 95.8 m² = Sum of room areas.

## Roofing Calculations

1. **Roof Area:**

- 92 m² = Base Area / cos(Pitch Angle)

2. **Timber Truss Volume:**

- 0.45 m³ based on standard spacing (900mm c/c).

3. **Gutters and Downpipes Length:**

- 25 m based on roof perimeter.

## Doors and Windows Calculations

1. **Doors:**

- D01: 1 unit

- D02: 4 units

- D08: 1 unit

2. **Windows:**

- GW05: 1 unit

- GW08: 1 unit

- GW11: 4 units

- GW13: 1 unit

## Site Works Calculations

1. **Sewer Line Length:**

- 20 m based on site plan.

2. **Pergola Area:**
- 4.5 m² based on site plan.

## Material Breakdown (Detailed Calculations)

1. **Bricks:**

- Total Bricks = (Wall Surface Area / Brick Size) + Wastage

- Approximate Total: 8,000 pcs

2. **Cement:**

- Cement Bags = (Concrete Volume + Plaster Volume + Screed Volume) / Mix Ratio

- Approximate Total: 200 bags

3. **Sand and Aggregate:**

- Sand: 17.05 m³ (mortar, plaster, concrete)

- Aggregate: 16.43 m³ (foundation and slab concrete)

4. **Roofing Materials:**

- Chromadek Sheets: 92 pcs

- Timber Truss: 0.45 m³

## Notes:

- The calculations consider a standard wastage percentage (5-10%) for materials.

- Adjustments may be required on-site based on practical conditions.
