Frequently Asked Questions

Q:How many cement bags and steel are required for a 1,000 sq ft house in India?

Based on standard Indian civil engineering thumb rules, a 1,000 sq ft built-up house requires approximately 400 bags of cement (0.4 bags/sq ft), 3.8 to 4.0 tonnes of TMT steel (3.8 kg/sq ft), 1,750 cu ft of M-sand, and 1,350 cu ft of coarse aggregate for RCC foundations, columns, beams, and slabs.

Q:Are AAC blocks cheaper and better than traditional red clay bricks?

Yes. Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) blocks are 3× larger than red bricks, significantly reducing joint mortar consumption by 60% and speeding up construction. They are also 50% lighter (reducing structural dead load on columns) and provide superior thermal insulation, keeping rooms cooler in summer.
