Frequently Asked Questions | عام سوالات
Are all guides really free? | کیا سب مفت ہیں؟
Yes — every guide on this site is 100% free with no registration, no login, and no hidden fees. Use them as often as you need.
Which concrete grade should I use for my house?
For residential buildings in Pakistan, M20 (1:1.5:3) is the minimum recommended grade for structural RCC elements. Use M25 or higher for columns and heavily loaded beams.
How accurate are the material quantities?
Our guides use standard dry volume correction (×1.54) and established nominal mix ratios. Results are typically within 5% of site requirements when dimensions are entered correctly.
Can I use these on mobile? | موبائل پر استعمال؟
Yes — all guides are fully mobile-responsive. They work on any smartphone or tablet browser without needing to install any app.
What is a dry volume correction factor?
When concrete ingredients are mixed with water, the dry materials reduce in volume. A factor of 1.54× is applied to the wet volume to estimate the correct dry material quantities.
Do guides account for material wastage?
Yes — most guides include a wastage option (typically 5%–10%). We recommend always adding at least 5% to final procurement quantities to account for site spillage and variations.
