No you cannot compact sharp sand
2.7 m3 (2,700 liters) if the aluminum is at room temperature
You can very accurately determine the volume of sand using water. If you just take some sand and measure the volume, a lot of the volume you measure is actually the empty space between the sand crystals. If you want the true volume of the sand, you must use the water method.To do this, start with a known volume of water (use a graduated cylinder for instance). Record this volume. The weigh out a certain amount of sand, and add this sand to the water. When you do that, the volume of the water will increase. Record this new volume. Then simply subtract the initial volume from the final volume. This difference is the volume of the sand particles. You can also calculate the density of sand by this method since you weighed the sand before adding it, and the density is just weight ÷ volume.
Density can be thought of as how compacted something is. Density is calculated by mass divided by volume.
It's always mass over volume, so you divide the mass by the volume then that is your density. mass/volume
1m3
In compacted sand the grains of sand are closer together, meaning there are more grains in a certain volume. This gives a higher value for density.
1m3 of steel is the same as the first answer 7840Kg.
density of sand is approx 2.6 kg/L density = mass / volume => mass = volume * density and as 1m3 = 1000 litres mass = 1000 litres * 2.6 kg/l =2600kgs
1800kg/m3
Simply calculate volume of sand as you calculated volume of cement to be used, just don't multiply it with 1440, divide by 50 as in case of calculating cement.you will get your answer in m3 of sand.
Light-colored sand is mostly quartz. The specific gravity of quartz is 2.65, but sand is porous. A good approximation is 1.6 for compacted sand where the interstitial volume is filled with air, rising to 1.9 when the sand is saturated with water.

11/2
An Average of 2400 kg, with a ratio of 1:3 Cement and Sand
It is because the process of excavation breaks up the compacted material. The excavated volume includes empty spaces and so it larger.
a lot of sand compacted into layers
