Design and Calculation for M30 Grade Concrete Block
Updated Design and Calculation for M30 Grade Concrete (200 kg, 45x45x40 cm with
16mm SSLifting Hook)
Concrete Specifications:
Grade: M30 (Compressive
strength = 30 MPa).Density:
2400 kg/m³ (standard for
concrete).
Mix Ratio: Approx. 1:0.75:1.5 (Cement: Sand: Aggregate).

Volume of Concrete:
The block dimensions remain:
Volume = Length x Width x Height = 0.45 m x 0.45 m x 0.40 m = 0.081 m³
Weight of Concrete:
Using the density of concrete:
Weight = Volume x Density = 0.081 m³ x 2400
kg/m³ = 194.4 kgThis weight is suitable for the
intended 200 kg requirement.
M30 Grade Concrete Mix Calculation:
The total weight of the concrete mix for 0.081 m³ (adjust for water content of
approximately 0.55water-cement ratio):
Cement:
Cement Volume = (1 / (1 + 0.75 + 1.5)) x 0.081 = 0.027 m³
Cement Weight = 0.027 m³ x 1440 kg/m³ = 38.88 kg
Sand:
Sand Volume = 0.027 m³ x 0.75 = 0.02025 m³ Sand Weight = 0.02025 m³ x 1600
kg/m³ = 32.4 kg
Aggregate:
Aggregate Volume = 0.027 m³ x 1.5 = 0.0405 m³
Aggregate Weight = 0.0405 m³ x 2400 kg/m³ = 97.2 kg

Water Content:
For M30, use a water-cement ratio of 0.45-0.50.
Water Weight = 0.45 x 38.88 = 17.5 kg
Lifting Hook CalculationDiameter: 16 mm SS316
Embedment Length: 15 cm.Stress on the Hook:
Stress = Force / Area = 1962 / (2.01 x 10^-4) = 9.76 MPa
Yield strength of SS316 is 200 MPa, providing a high safety factor.
Rebar Reinforcement Design Material: 8 mm diameter steel bars.Pattern: Grid with 10 cm
spacing.
Design:
Note: Purpose: Prevent cracking and distribute the load from the hook.
