How many bags of cement...

Thanos · 2014-03-03 08:38:38

Hi Folks, I am about to build a foundation for a shed in the back garden. I will be getting a tonne bag of sand (have loads of rubble to use in it to straighten it) but was wondering how many bags of cement I would need. Will probably use most of it as i also have to fix some steps out the back door also. Thanks.

General rule of thumb would be 5 : 1, so approx. 8 x 25Kg bags of Cement.
