How much mass of cementrequired if the volume ofcement need to create 1.0 m3of concrete is 0.135 m3
A batch of concrete consisted of 200 lbs fine aggregate (sand), 400 lbs coarse aggregate(gravel), 95 lbs cement, and 5 gallons of water. The relative density of the sand and gravel may be taken as 0.65 and that the cement as 3.10 What was the total volume ofconcrete produced? FULL solution please thank u
You are working on a concrete mix design that requires each cubic yard ofconcrete to have 0.45 water–cement ratio, 1963 lb/yd3of dry gravel, 4% aircontent, and 565 lb/yd3of cement. The available gravel has a specific gravity of Ggravel = 2.7, a moisture content of 1.6%, and absorption of 2.4%. Theavailable sand has a specific gravity of Gsand = 2.5, a moisture content of4.8%, and absorption of 1.5%. For each cubic yard of concrete needed onthe job, calculate the weights of cement, moist gravel, moist sand, and waterthat should be added to the batch. Summarize and total the mix design whenfinished (don’t include air entrainer in summary)
(a) The following data are collected for a modulus ofrupture test on a refractory brick (refer to Equation6.10 and Figure 6,14):F= 5.0 x 10 N.L= 200 mm,h= 130 mm.h= 80 mm.Calculate the modulus of rUpture: (b) suppose thatyou are given a similar rolracioty with the fallSpensin and same dimensions except that its heightSit ts only 60 mm. What would be the load (F) necesary to break this thinner refractory?
Estimate the total amount of cost for concrete works (class “B”) based from the following given: 10-pcs of F1 (1.2m x 1.2m x 0.3 m) 10-pcs of C1 (0.3 m x 0.3 m x 4.1 m) Floor area of 100mm thk slab-on-grade = 53 sq.m The cost of cement (40kg per bag) = 210 per bag. The cost of sand is 710 per cubic meter. The cost of gravel is 1900 per cubic meter.

UUURRRGGGEEENNNTTT PLEASE You are working on a concrete mix design that requires each cubic yard of concrete to have a 0.43 water–cement ratio, 2077 lb/yd3 of dry gravel 244 lb/yd3 of water, and 4% air content. The available gravel has a specific gravity of Ggravel = 2.6, moisture content of 2.3% and absorption of 4.5%. The available sand has a specific gravity of Gsand = 2.4, a moisture content of 2.2% and absorption of 1.7%. Air entrainer is to be included using the manufacturers specification of 0.1 fl. oz / 1% air / 100 lb cement. For each cubic yard of concrete needed on the job, calculate the weight of cement, moist gravel, moist sand, and water that should be added to the batch. Summarize and total the mix design when finished.
A batch of concrete considered of 200 lbs fine aggregate, 350 lbs coarse aggregate, 94 lbs cement, and 5 gallons water. The specific gravity of the sand and gravel may be taken as 2.65 and that of the cement as 3.10. What is the weight in lb of concrete in place per cubic foot? a. 163b. 173c. 183d. 193
A batch of concrete consisted of 200 lbs. fine aggregate, 350 lbs. coarse aggregate, 94 lbs., cement and 5 gallons water. The specific gravity of sand and gravel may be taken as 2.65 and that of the cement as 3.10. How much by weight of cement is required to produce one cubic yard? Final answer must be in pounds.
