Guide — Sand & Aggregate Volume

The sand and aggregate calculator below follows standard Indian construction practice and the relevant IS-code conventions. Enter the site dimensions exactly as measured, press Calculate Now, then refine the quantities line by line in the live sheet before you export.

A brass is 100 cubic feet, or 2.832 cubic metres — the traditional trade unit across western India. River sand is normally billed by brass, crushed aggregate by tonne, and both by cubic metre in formal contracts.

Bulk densities differ: river sand about 1550 kg/m³, M-sand 1750, 20 mm coarse aggregate 1500 and 10 mm aggregate 1600. Always confirm which figure the supplier used before converting a tonnage quote.

Damp sand bulks by up to 30% in volume, so a volumetric purchase during monsoon can deliver significantly less dry material than the invoice suggests. Weigh-bridge receipts avoid the dispute.

Treat every output as an indicative pre-tender estimate. Site conditions, wastage allowances, specification changes and local market rates all move the final figure, so validate against your drawings and approved rate analysis before procurement.

About the Sand & Aggregate Volume

This tool is built for site engineers, quantity surveyors, contractors and property investors who need dependable numbers fast. Every input is reactive — changing a single field instantly recomputes the full output set, so you can run sensitivity checks on dimensions, grades and rates before committing to an estimate.

Keep unit consistency in mind: metric inputs (metres, square metres, cubic metres) produce metric outputs, with imperial and Indian trade units shown alongside where they are commonly used on site.
