Material quantity estimators for Indian homes — rough cement, brick, steel, mortar, and plaster numbers when you are checking a contractor quote or planning a renovation. Also used by students and site teams. Educational only.
Material calculators
Excavation Quantity Calculator
Footing pits, trenches or a basement: soil to dig, bulking and lorry trips.
PCC Calculator
Plain cement concrete under footings, walls or a floor: volume, cement, sand and aggregate.
Plinth Filling Calculator
Soil to bring for plinth filling or foundation backfill, with compaction and trips.
Earthwork Calculator (Mean Depth)
Road and embankment banking and cutting from ground levels, section by section.
Road Earthwork Calculator
Cut and fill volumes and the balance between them, from levels at each chainage.
Concrete Volume Calculator (RCC)
Slab, beam, column, or footing — enter dimensions for a rough concrete quantity.
Brick Quantity Calculator
Wall length × height → approximate brick count and mortar bags.
Steel Weight Calculator (TMT)
Steel rod weight from bar size and length — useful when checking rebar quotes.
Cement–Sand Mortar Calculator
Cement and sand for masonry joints — by wall area or volume.
Plaster Quantity Calculator
Wall plaster — single or two-coat thickness in mm.
How these tools connect
Typical order: excavation for the foundations → PCC under the footings → plinth filling → concrete volume for slabs → brick count for walls → mortar or plaster for finishes → steel weight if your quote lists TMT separately. For full-house budgeting, start with FAR / FSI and construction cost instead.
