Hi Anusree!

As a rule of thumb, and based on my experiences for ordinary concreting works, basically, 0.80cu.m. Gravel, 0.40cu.m.Sand, 8- 40kgs bags of cement and 20 to 25 kgs of water makes up for 1cu.m. concrete.

of course, this mixture may vary according to the ff factors:

-required strength

-workability

-time of curing

-conditions of the site

-handling and placing

you may use estimate handbook for specific calculation.
