Dry density of cement should be 30 % or 54 % of wet cement ???

Good Evening Sir,

What percentage should be taken or add on dry density of cement for plaster or brick work while calculating the actual consumption of cement and sand.

Wet cement is = dry cement + water

dry cement = wet cement - water

I hope this is very much clear and all measurement are in volume.

If you are talking from rate analysis point of view, you can refer relevant codes or books.
