A column with a section of 0.30m x 0.35m is to be filled up class AA reinforced concrete. It is 3.00m in height How many cement bags do you need to fill it up? If you will have a total of 10 columns, how many cubic meters of sand and gravel will you need? Compute for the Total Cost needed for the 10 columns if 1 cement bag is Php 275 pesos, and 1 cubic meter of Sand is sold at Php 1850.00, and 1 cubic meter of Gravel is sold at Php 1950.00. Take note: The Class AA type of concrete mix has 12 bags of cement per cubic meter. To get the volume of the following: Volume of sand= volume of column x 0.50 Volume of Gravel= volume of column x 1.00
