send floor plan please

labor rate 290 per sq ft

How much steel ( in tonnes) is required for a roof area of 5000 sq ft?

Dear M Khan

100℅ accurate weight can be done after studying of steel design,otherwise a roughly estimate is 5.5 tons.

Thanks ARMCO, How many cement bags ( 50 KG) would be required for the 5000 sq ft roof? If there are different types of roof, please provide estimate for each type.

Dear M Khan

If the roof slab is RCC 6" thick then cement required approximately 400+ bags

If the roof is RBC then cement required 300 bags

Keeping the brick cost in view, the difference in price doesn't seem to be that significant between RCC and RBC.

The 5000 sq ft is divided between about 1000 sq ft basement, 2000 sq ft ground and first floor.

What's your recommendation for the roof types for basement, ground and first floor in Islamabad?

Dear M Khan

6" thick RCC roof slab is best safe and strengthen.

Very nice discussion. Every one would really appreciate if this discussion keep going and encompass everything pertaining to construction.

Thanx@fani

If we can get the current market price for

  1. One 50 kg bag of cement

  2. One ton of steel used in roof RCC 6"

  3. One thousand bricks

  4. Labor cost per sq ft of grey structure

  5. Price of cruch for RCC roof and quantity needed for 5000 sq ft RCC 6" roof or 71 cubic meter roof.

Cement @ 510-525

steel @ 68000- 75000 per ton

Bricks @ 8000 -12000 per 1000 bricks

grey structure @ Rs250 - 300 sqft

Crush @ Rs45 per cubic feet

Crush required for 5000 cubic feet is 2500- 2700 cubic feet and sand 1700 to 1900 cubic feet. In layman terms you would need 3 trucks of crush and 2 trucks of sand.

if you can provide with accurate dimension than steel average can be given... Depending on the dimension if you use 60 gauge steel it will be 6.25 tons and if you use 40 gauge steel than it will be 5 tons maximum...

Good @HT

Thanks @HT and @ARMCO for the useful updates.

Welcome brother M Khan

Thanks Armco and welcome Mkhan

My plot is quite uneven. The area on ground floor to cover has the approximate dimensions-- width = 25’ and 50’, Length = 59’, 64’. Its a rectangle of size 25’ x 59’ attached with this a right angled triangle of base 25’ and height 59’
