Concrete now comes in cubic meters. There is 2.2 tons to each cubic meter of concrete plus whatever the size if the truck is. An 8 meter truck is about 32 tons full, 6 meter truck is about 26 tons full and a minni mix (4 meters) is about 22 tons full. This is just a rough guide. Regards Colin
That depends on what size the concrete truck is. A 10-yard truck carries about 270 cubic feet when full. An 8 cubic yard truck carries about 216 cubic feet of concrete. (Or gravel, sand, etc)
Approximately 15 to 20 cubic meters. Not all 3 ton trucks will be the same size (have the ability to carry the exact same amount/volume of cargo), but one example would be: Cargo body size (mm) = 5400×2298×400 Now, this would give you 4.96 cubic meters, but the 400mm measurement is just the height of the side of the cargo bay area ... in fact, cargo could be stacked probably 4 times that height, giving an effective cargo size/volume of 19.85 cubic meters.
one elf can load 1.2 cubic meter http://andrewcrvz.blogspot.com/
It may vary slightly from year to year, but around 135 cubic feet. This is something the dealer should be able to tell you easily.
Normally the MASS would be specified. Although this is informally called the weight, mass and weight are two quite different things. The mass of a garbage truck might be indicated in kilograms, or in tons (thousands of kilograms). The actual weight would be measured in Newtons.
Normal weight concrete weighs about 4000 lb. per cubic yard. Lightweight concrete weighs about 3000 lb. per cubic yard. If a truck is carrying 10 cubic yards, then the weight of the concrete is approximately 40,000 lb. The truck will weigh approximately 26,000 lb. for a total of 66,000 lb.
A person may be able to purchase an concrete truck at a ready-mix company that can be ordered, or added along with, the amount of concrete that a person or company is providing. For example, the general rule is that a concrete truck will, about average, hold ten cubic yards. Again, this is average because some trucks will actually hold about eight cubic yards to about nine cubic yards.
The weight of a concrete mixer truck can vary depending on the size of the truck and if the truck is weighted with concrete it may be carrying. A concrete mixer truck is about 20,000 to 30,000 pounds without concrete.
That depends on what size the concrete truck is. A 10-yard truck carries about 270 cubic feet when full. An 8 cubic yard truck carries about 216 cubic feet of concrete. (Or gravel, sand, etc)
Don't know the weight of the truck alone -- google it. Concrete (wet) could be assumed to be 145 pounds per cubic foot, and there are 27 cubic feet in one cubic yard. Compacted damp to dry soil (at "optimum moisture" for compacting) might run around 110 to 120 pounds per cubic foot, and loose soil would be considerably less (assuming it's dry and not saturated).
Roughly 10 cubic yards (or 270 cubic feet).
One yard of delivered concrete is $250.00. Prices change according to location. One cubic yard contains 27 cubic feet. Concrete is sold in cubic yards. A yard of concrete weighs approximately 4200 pounds.
Most will hold 10 cubic yards. Some local codes will force them to run 8 or less because of the weight.
That depends on what type of dump truck, what type of commodity, how it is measured (by weight or by cubic yard), and the state laws regarding weight allowances. A Class 7 single axle dump truck can typically haul eight to ten cubic yards, or up to eight tons of payload. A tandem axle dump truck can typically haul 15 to 20 yards, and anywhere between 12 and 16 tons of payload, dependent on truck specifications and local laws.
It is typically measures in cubic yards. Anything over 2 cubic yards is a lot of mixing, so you'd likely want to order that from a concrete company in a ready mix concrete truck.
In the UK our most regular type of mixer lorry carries 6 cubic metres. In the US I believe on average they carry between 9 and 11 cubic yards. The largest mixer truck I have seen carries 15 cubic metres, although this may not be the largest available.
At U-Haul, the smallest truck that will hold 40 cubic yards (1,080 cubic feet) is a 24-foot truck. You will also need to check the weight capacity.
