How many bags of concrete would it take to get 1.78 cu yd?
To determine how many bags of concrete are needed for 1.78 cubic yards, first note that a standard bag of concrete typically contains 0.5 cubic feet. Since there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, 1.78 cubic yards is equivalent to 1.78 x 27 = 48.06 cubic feet. Dividing 48.06 cubic feet by 0.5 cubic feet per bag gives approximately 96.12 bags. Therefore, you would need about 97 bags of concrete to cover 1.78 cubic yards.
How many yards of concrete needed for 24' X 30' X 6 slab?
To calculate the amount of concrete needed for a slab, you can use the formula: volume = length × width × depth. For a 24' x 30' slab with a depth of 6 inches (0.5 feet), the volume is 24 × 30 × 0.5 = 360 cubic feet. Since there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, you would divide 360 by 27, resulting in approximately 13.33 cubic yards of concrete needed for the slab.
How many bags of cement would be needed for a cubic yard of concrete?
Forty five 80 pound bags of cement are needed to make one cubic yard of concrete.
How many bags of 80 lb concrete makes a yard?
To determine how many bags of 80 lb concrete make a cubic yard, you need to know that one cubic yard is equivalent to 27 cubic feet. An 80 lb bag of concrete typically covers about 0.6 cubic feet. Therefore, to fill one cubic yard, you would need approximately 45 bags of 80 lb concrete (27 cubic feet ÷ 0.6 cubic feet per bag ≈ 45).
How much concrete do it take to pour a 9' x9'x4' slab?
To calculate the amount of concrete needed for a 9' x 9' x 4' slab, first determine the volume in cubic feet by multiplying the dimensions: 9 x 9 x 4 = 324 cubic feet. Since concrete is typically sold by the cubic yard, convert cubic feet to cubic yards by dividing by 27 (there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard). Therefore, you would need approximately 12 cubic yards of concrete for the slab.
If a sidewalk at your house measures 48 wide 4-inches thick and is 40-feet long how many cubic feet of concrete are in the sidewalk?
53 and 1/3 cubic feet, concrete is normally sold buy the cubic yard, this would be 1.975 cubic yards. Figure on 2.25 CU yards to be safe. You do not want to run short when pouring concrete.
Can you pour a concrete sidewalk over top of another existing concrete sidewalk?
No do to the concrete settling the concrete on top would split
How big is a 8 cubic feet slab of concrete 3 inches thick?
If you made a sidewalk about 2.5' wide it would be about 13' long.
How much cement is needed to build a sidewalk that is 132 inches long 24 inches wideand 3 inches think?
Well, you make a sidewalk from concrete, not just cement. Concrete consists of cement, sand, gravel and water. You will need 5.5 cubic feet of concrete. A standard sidewalk grade of concrete would be 1 part cement, 2 parts sand, 3 parts gravel- so the sidewalk needs 0.91 cu ft of cement- about 87 pounds worth- plus sand and gravel. If you want to buy the premixed bags of concrete (like Sacrete), you will need about 17 of the 40 pounds bags. And you did not ask, but 3 inches is kind of skinny- I would go for at least a 4 inch thick sidewalk.
Is lightweight concrete sturdy enough for a sidewalk?
This will depend on what the use of the sidewalk is. It would not work in a busy urban area, but as a path in the garden it would work well.
How much is point one of a cubic meter of concrete?
One cubic meter of concrete has 1,000 liters. Therefore, 0.1 cubic meters of concrete would be 100 liters. This can also be expressed as 100,000 cubic centimeters.
How much premix concrete need to build 1 cubic meters of concrete?
An 80 pound bag of premix concrete will make .6 cubic feet of cured concrete. There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic meter, so it would take 45 80 pound bags to make one cubic meter.
How much concrete is needed for a 4x4 post?
To calculate the amount of concrete needed for a 4x4 post, you can use the formula: volume length x width x height. For a 4x4 post, assuming a height of 8 feet, the volume would be 4 x 4 x 8 128 cubic feet. This would require approximately 1.5 cubic yards of concrete.
What is the weight of 9 cubic feet of concrete?
The weight of concrete typically averages around 150 pounds per cubic foot. Therefore, 9 cubic feet of concrete would weigh approximately 1,350 pounds (9 cubic feet x 150 pounds per cubic foot). This can vary slightly based on the specific mix of the concrete used.
How far will a cubic meter of concrete go in an 8 inch form?
A cubic meter of concrete is equivalent to 1,000 liters. An 8-inch form has a cross-sectional area of approximately 0.44 square meters (since 8 inches is about 0.203 meters). Therefore, a cubic meter of concrete would fill an 8-inch form for about 2.27 meters in length (1,000 liters / 0.44 square meters).
How many cubic feet are in a yard?
Contractors and construction people often speak of "yards" of concrete, topsoil, or fill. They are in fact speakeing of "cubic yards" which is the common unit of measure when reffering to these items, they simply abbreviate and everybody they generally interface with understands that the quantity refferred to is cubic or a volume.For instance a concrete sidewalk 4 inches thick, 4 feet wide, and 120 feet long requires 1/3 foot X 4 feet X 120 feet or 160 cubic feet of concrete. There are 27 (3 X 3 X 3) cubic feet in a cubic yard. Then the sidewalk would require 160 ft3 divided by 27 ft3/yd3 or 6 cubic yards. The contractor would call the Ready Mix plant and say, "I need 6 yards of concrete at this address at this time" and 6 cubic yards would be delivered as requested.Additionally, Earth Moving equipment capacities are measured in cubic yards. It's not unusual to hear a contractor say, "Yah, we had to move 3,000,000 yards of fill to build that runway", or some other project.It's not proper terminology, but it is communicating, and that is the desired outcome. A yard is a measure of distance; a cubic foot is a measure of volume. They aren't compatible. There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard.
How many 80lb bags of concrete are in a yard?
There are approximately 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, and an 80-pound bag of concrete typically yields about 0.6 cubic feet. Therefore, to fill one cubic yard, you would need about 45 bags of 80-pound concrete.
