For a 10 cm thick slab, a typical mix ratio for concrete is 1:3:6, meaning 1 part cement, 3 parts sand, and 6 parts aggregate (by volume). So, for a 50 kg bag of cement, you would need 3 x 50 = 150 kg of sand and 6 x 50 = 300 kg of aggregate. To this, you would add water as needed to achieve a workable consistency.
Assuming an average waste factor of 20%, the total volume of concrete required to cast a 10 cm thick slab covering 100 square feet would be approximately:
(100 sqft) x (10 cm) / (12 in/ft) / (2.54 cm/in) = 785 liters
So, you would need approximately:
785 liters of concrete mix, made up of:
50 kg of cement
150 kg of sand
300 kg of aggregate
Water, as needed
