To determine how many 80-pound bags of concrete are needed to fill a 55-gallon drum, first calculate the volume of the drum. A 55-gallon drum holds about 7.4 cubic feet (since 1 gallon is approximately 0.133 cubic feet). An 80-pound bag of concrete typically yields about 0.6 cubic feet. Therefore, you would need approximately 12 to 13 bags of concrete to fill the drum.
To fill a 30-gallon drum with concrete, you would need approximately 12 bags of 80-pound concrete. This is based on the fact that one 80-pound bag of concrete yields about 0.6 cubic feet, and a 30-gallon drum holds about 4 cubic feet. Therefore, dividing 4 cubic feet by 0.6 cubic feet per bag gives you roughly 6.67 bags, but accounting for the weight and settling, it's safer to estimate around 12 bags.
To calculate the volume of concrete needed to fill a 55-gallon drum, you first need to know the dimensions of the drum. Once you have the dimensions, you can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder (V = πr^2h) to calculate the volume of concrete required. Remember to convert the volume from gallons to cubic inches or feet for accurate results.

About 8.5556 cubic feet.
There are a total of eight pounds in each gallon. By dividing 414 by 8, we find out that a 415 pound drum holds about 51 gallons.
To determine how many 80 lb. bags of concrete mix are needed to fill an oil drum, first calculate the volume of the drum. A standard oil drum has a capacity of about 55 gallons, which is approximately 0.2 cubic meters or 7.4 cubic feet. Since an 80 lb. bag of concrete mix typically covers about 0.6 cubic feet, you would need roughly 12 to 13 bags to fill the drum completely.
You pour four gallons into the five gallon drum, and take the ten gallon drum with the other four gallons of oil in that.
Fill the 5-gallon drum. Pour the contents into the 3-gallon drum, filling it. Now you have 2 gallons left in the big one.Empty the 3-gallon drum. Pour the 2 gallons into it. At this point there is room for one more gallon.Now refill the 5-gallon drum and pour off as much as it takes to fill up the small one. That means you are removing one gallon.Now you have exactly 4 gallons in the 5-gallon drum.or Fill the 3 gallon drum. Pour the contents into the 5 gallon drum. Refill the the 3 gallon drum and pour the contents into the 5 gallon drum until it is full. Empty the 5 gallon drum. You have 1 gallon left in the 3 gallon drum. Pour the remaining 1 gallon into the 5 gallon drum. Re-fill the 3-gallon drum and pour that into the 5 gallon drum giving you 4 gallons. or Tip the 5 gallon drum and fill it until water is level to both the bottom and spilling out the top; next do the same with the 3 gallon drum; then pour the half full 3 gallon drum into the half full 5 gallon drum, rusulting in 2.5 plus 1.5 equals 4 gallons! orWatch Die Hard 3 for the answer.
A 150-gallon drum contains 0.0036 gallon per cubic inch.
That could be answered if we knew the volume of one 40-lb bag. Bags of leaves, styrofoam, beans, and gold all have vastly different volumes.
weigh the drum empty then full of water and the difference is what it will float. i think there's about 4 litres to a gallon so it should flaot about 200kg which is about 400 lbs (near enough)
There are 0.668 cubic feet in a 5 gallon bucket and 7.352 cubic feet in a 55 gallon drum.
