The mix ratio and cement bag weight determine how many bags of cement required for 1m3 m20 concrete. For 1m3 of M20 concrete, you will require about 8 cement bags as a general rule of thumb.

M20 concrete cement required:
  • Cement has a bulk density of 1440 kg/cu m. 

  • 1:1.5:3 is the mix ratio for concrete of grade M20.

  • One bag of cement weighs 50 kg.

  • Material's total dry volume requirement is 1.57 cubic meters.

  • Cement Required Volume = Cement Ratio x 1.57/(1 + 1.5 + 3)

  • Required Cement volume = 1 x 1.57/5.

  • The required Cement volume is 0.285 cubic meters.

  • Required Weight of cement = volume of cement x bulk density of cement

  • Required Weight of Cement = 0.285 cu m x 1440 kg/cu m = 410 kg.

  • The required cement bag count is 410/50 = 8.2, or around 8 Nos.

In order to prepare one cubic metre of M20 grade concrete, 8 bags of cement are needed.

Please note that the actual amount of cement needed may vary slightly based on factors such as the moisture content of the sand and aggregates, the specific brand and type of cement, and other local conditions. It's advisable to consult with your supplier or engineer for precise measurements for your project.

I hope this answers your query about how many bags of cement required for 1m3 m20 concrete.
