What is the density of aggregate of 20mm?

1.5 tonnes per Cubic metre.


What is the dry density of cement?

The cement density is used in the calculation of the total aggregate content and of the concrete density.Normal concrete has a density around 2400 kg/cubic meter or 4048 lb/cubic yard. There are many different kinds of concrete, many of which are much lighter. Cement is the liquid (or paste like) form, and tends to be much heavier than when it has cured into concrete. "Cement" is not concrete, but can be used to make concrete by mixing with sand, stone and water. The density of cement is about 3120kg/m3.


What is the significance of grading aggregate?

The grading of aggregate influences the mix proportions for a specified workability and water-cement ratio. Coarser the grading leaner will be mix which can be used. Very lean mix is not desirable since it does not contain enough finer material to make the concrete cohesive. The type of aggregate influences strongly the aggregate-cement ratio for the desired workability and stipulated water cement ratio. An important feature of a satisfactory aggregate is the uniformity of the grading which can be achieved by mixing different size fractions.


What is mean by good grading?

The word "grading" refers to the diversity in size of the aggregates. Aggregates that have "good grading" or are "well graded" have the same % of each size stone. The goal is to get the maximum aggregate packing density within a mix that still allows the cement to bond to the aggregates and cure properly, since its the aggregates that give concrete its high compressive strength.
