The specific gravity of materials tell us how many times is the material heavier than water. The higher the specific gravity of a material the higher the density of concrete made with and the higher will be the force require to crush it and the higher will be the corresponding strenght of the concrete
What else can I help you with?
How much does a 5 gal bucket of concrete weigh?
The specific gravity of limestone concrete is 2.37. Therefore 5 gallons of concrete would weigh 94.8 pounds.
Crushed marble stone fine aggregate in concrete?
Crushed marble stone has a low absorption rate hence less water is required which means better strength. Also the marble typically has a denser specific gravity.
What is the range of specific gravity of fine aggregate?
The specific gravity of fine aggregate typically ranges from 2.60 to 2.80. This range can vary depending on the mineral composition and moisture content of the aggregate. Specific gravity is an important property that influences the weight, volume, and overall performance of concrete mixtures.
What is the Specific gravity of ppc?
Specific gravity of ppc is 3.15
What will be the effect on specific gravity of cement if some of the sample is lost after weighing?
There is no effect on the specific gravity if some of the sample is removed. The amount of mass will change, but it will still have the same specific gravity. It is basically a density. The specific gravity of 1lb of cement is the same as the specific gravity of 100lbs of cement, you just have more cement.
How much is the specific gravity of concrete?
That may be strength specific and will be subject to air entrainment
What is the weight of 72 inches lenghty 24 inches diameter of the concrete block?
It is impossible to answer without knowing the density of the material that the pipe is made of and the strength of gravity at the location where the pipe is weighed.
Is 1 meter cube concrete wt depend upen material?
Yes. And the local force of gravity.
How much does a 5 gal bucket of concrete weigh?
The specific gravity of limestone concrete is 2.37. Therefore 5 gallons of concrete would weigh 94.8 pounds.
What is the expression for specific gravity when kerosene is used instead of distilled water?
Specific gravity is the ratio of density of material to the density of water, so when we use Kerosin instead of water then the value will be multiplied by the specific gravity of kerosin to get the actual specific gravity.
Which erosional force acts alone to produce avalanches and landslides?
Gravity acts alone to produce avalanches and landslides. When the force of gravity exceeds the strength of the material holding it in place on a slope, the material will move downhill in the form of an avalanche or landslide.
The specific gravity of a product can be found on the material data sheet. how do you know if a product will sink in water?
The specific gravity of water is unity. Anything with a specific gravity which is over unity will therefore sink in water.
Crushed marble stone fine aggregate in concrete?
Crushed marble stone has a low absorption rate hence less water is required which means better strength. Also the marble typically has a denser specific gravity.
How do you Determine the Specific gravity of cement?
Cement is usually purchased as a powdery substance that is mixed with sand, aggregate, gravel and water to form concrete. Since the cement itself is usually a powder, it is hard to measure a standard value for it's specific gravity. And since cement is usually not used by itself, knowing it's specific gravity is not particularly useful. A more useful question is "What is the typical density of concrete?" A rule of thumb answer is that normal cured concrete has a density of about 150 pounds per cubic foot. This includes the weight of the cement, sand, aggregate, and that part of the water that chemcially binds with the cement to form the concrete. Since water weighs about 62.4 pounds per cubic feet, concrete is about 2.4 times as heavy. Thus the specific gravity of concrete is about 2.4. If you took cement and mixed it with water, you would eventually have a hard lump of useless cement and it would also have a specific gravity of between 2 and 2.4. Ash Grove Cement from the Foreman, AR Facility normally has a specific gravity of 3.15. Depending on the source of the cement, the specific gravity may vary, but typically it will be close to this figure. Knowing the specific gravity of cement is critical when developing a mix design for concrete, because if one does not know the specific gravities of the raw materials, it is not possible to figure the proportions needed to give you the appropriate yield for a cubic yard of concrete.
What is the weight of light weight concrete?
Depends on the specific gravity of the individual compnents and the specific mix design. Weight can very greatly.
The specific gravity of a product can be found on material safety data sheet how do you know if a product will sink in water?
The specific gravity of water is unity. Anything with a specific gravity which is over unity will therefore sink in water.
