Steel is heavier than concrete for the same volume, however steel buildings are generally lighter.
This is because steel buildings utilize high strength of steel, so volume of steel in steel buildings is much smaller than volume of concrete in concrete buildings.
In another words in steel buildings much less volume of material is needed for the same strength compared to concrete buildings.

Which weighs more sand or water?
a UK pint of water weighs a pound and a quarter.8xpints equal 1 UK gallon.answer 10lbs total weight a UK gallon of water.sand is measured in buckets not weight comparable.reckon equal weights. A UK Gallon is a unit of Volume. A UK Gallon of water weighs very close to 10 Pounds. Anything which is Denser than water, will sink when placed in it. Another way to look at is: Which is Denser; Water or Sand?You know sand sinks in water, therefore an equivalent Volume of Sand must be heavier than the same volume of water. However, the sand particles have quite a bit of air spaces between them , therefore it is possible that a cupful of sand may be almost the same weight as a cupful of water, but what you need to know is the comparable Densities, not the weights or volumes. Sand is definitely Denser than water.
Weight of one gallon of alcohol?
Almost the same as pure water The specific gravity of fermented wine is very close to that of water, because although the weight is increased by dissolved solids, it is reduced by the alcohol content. Sweet wines tend to have a higher SG, so they weigh a bit more per gallon than water, which weighs 8.34 pounds per US gallon. During the winemaking process, it can weigh as much as 9 pounds or more.
Does a gallon of water weigh more than a gallon of beer?
Beer is heavier per gallonEven though some of the carbohydrates and sugars have been fermented into alcohol, which is less dense than water, there are still many solids suspended in some beer, particularly the heavy, dark ones. When you measure the specific gravity of finished beer, it usually has a higher SG than water, which has an SG of 1.000. This means that beer is denser and, hence, weighs more per gallon than water. When I make my Irish Red, I add a one-quart bottle of liquid malt extract to the brew pot. That one-quart bottle weighs over six pounds!Answer8 lbs per gallon. Give or take a few tenths. (Water is 8.0 and Milk is 8.2 so diesel fuel has to be somewhere close)

How much does a gallon of raw sewage weigh?
There are many variables in defining a 'gallon of raw sewage.' A gallon of water weighs eight pounds. Typical sewage is going to weigh more, depending on the amount of solids that are in it. A gallon of oil weighs less than eight pounds.
What is the difference in weight between gallon of water and gallon of gasoline?
Equivalent in what way? Gasoline and water are two entirely different chemical compounds. They have dissimilar physical and chemical properties because, well, they are different. Perhaps you are referring specifically to the weight of a gallon of each. If so, then the weight of a gallon of each substance is not equivalent because the gas is less dense than water, so a gallon of water weighs more. When referring to volume, a gallon of gas is equivalent to a gallon of water. Even a gallon of oxygen is equivalent to a gallon of water, in reference to volume. However, when dealing with gases, pressure, temperature, and the number of molecules of the gas must be taken into account.
How much does one imperial gallon of water weigh?
Weight of Imperial Gallon of Water1 gallon [UK] = 1.201 gallon [US, liquid]One US gallon weighs 8.34 pounds, so an imperial gallon weighs about 16.6 percent more, or almost exactly 10 pounds.
