Typically a ready mix concrete weighs anywhere from 135 lbs to 160 lbs per cubic foot. The weight varies widely due to the different densities of the aggregates that are used in concrete mixes. Lightweight aggregates such as expanded shale can be used to significantly reduce weight but there is some sacrifice in strength taking this approach. Typically the denser the concrete and aggregates the higher the strength and weight.

Does a 60 pound bag of cement weigh 60 pounds when dried concrete?
No, a 60 pound bag of cement does not weigh the same when it is turned into dried concrete. Once mixed with water and set, the weight of the dried concrete will be slightly more than the original weight of the bag of cement due to the water and other additives in the mixture.
Does colored concrete dry lighter or darker?
Colored concrete typically dries lighter than it appears when first mixed because the water used in the mixing process evaporates, revealing the true color of the pigment. Additionally, factors such as the curing process and exposure to sunlight can also affect the final color of the concrete.
What does a low slump mean?
A low slump in concrete refers to a situation where the concrete mixture is relatively dry and stiff. This results in poor workability and more difficulty in placing and consolidating the concrete.

What is heavier sand or concrete?
Concrete is generally heavier than sand. The density of concrete typically ranges from about 2,200 to 2,500 kg/m³, while dry sand has a density of approximately 1,500 kg/m³. Therefore, for the same volume, concrete will weigh significantly more than sand.
Is wet concrete stronger than dry concrete?
no
