Best Answer

there are 108 20kg bags of concrete to 1 cu mtr.

If your making your own mix using dry mix concrete requiring cement and water, and your making a mix ratio of 5:1, then you divide 108 by 6 = 18.

therefore: 18x20kg bags of cement to 1800kgs of dry concrete mix.

How many litres of water 1m3?

1000 kg


How much does 1m3 of ice weigh?

Concrete has a density of approximately 2400 kg/m3.As such the weight of 1m3 of concrete is equal to:2400 x 9.81Weight of 1m3 of concrete = 23,544 Newtons.


What is the unit weight of cement mortar?

Between 830kg/m3 to 1650kg/m3 Cement (finely ground gray or white powder used to bind concrete mixtures) weighs between 830 kg/m3 and 1650 kg/m3 (52 lbs/ft3 and 103 lbs/ft3) depending on its handling. The weight of cement that has been pneumatically loaded into a cement silo may be as low as 830 kg/m3 (52 lbs/ft3), while cement that has been stored for a period of time exposed to vibration may be as heavy as 1650 kg/m3 (103 lbs/ft3). It is standard practice to consider a 94 lb bag of cement to be one cubic foot when freshly packed. Two 500-mL beakers were used for 500 grams of dry powdered cement. Cement was simply poured into beaker No 1. Cement was slightly vibrated-imitating consolidation during transport or packing while stored in a silo, into Beaker No 2. An approximately 20% difference in bulk volume was found. This demonstrates the need to measure cement by mass instead of volume for batching concrete.


Weight of concrete per cubic meter?

A cubic meter of concrete weighs around 2.5 tons. The weight will vary somewhat with the composition, but usual concrete mixes (per cubic meter) contain 350 Kg of cement, 700 Kg of sand, 1,200 Kg of chippings and 150 liters of water.


How many premixed cement bags are needed to pour 1 cubic foot of concrete?

one cubic meter of concrete equals 30 bags(approximately) The exact answer is 28.8 bags of 50kg cement bags. Typical Portland Cement has a density of 94 lbs/cubic foot, which translates to 1505 kg / cubic meter. So, divide 1505 kg by the weight of a "bag" of cement in kg. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Seems to be perhaps a little confusion here between concrete and cement. Cement is the powder we mix with aggregate to make concrete. Cement varies in density as much as 100%, i.e. it can double in density. From the above URL one 94lb bag is taken to be 1 cu ft for building purposes. 1 cu metre = 35.3146667 cu ft and therefore 1 cu meter of CEMENT is that many 94lb (42kg) bags. Hence the answer for how many Cement bags in 1 cu m = 35.3 94lb bags. It would make more sense if the query was directed towards finding how many bags of cement are required for 1 cu meter of CONCRETE. This depends, of course, on the chosen concrete mix. They vary widely. A most common mix is 1:2:3 - 1 part cement, 2 parts sand, three parts aggregate all by volume. In concrete making the dry ingredients shrink during the process as they compact together. It is found necessary to commence with 1.6 cu m of dry material to finish with 1 cu meter of concrete. 1.6 cu m = 56.5034 cu ft of which the cement portion should be 1/6 for a 1:2:3 mix. 56.5034/6 = 9.4172 cu ft and therefore 9.4172 1 cu ft, 94lb or 42kg bags are required or round about 20 of the usual household DIY worker's 20kg bags here in Australia. Hence the answer for how many bags of cement to make 1 cu m of (1:2:3) concrete is 20 20kg bags. These answers are not precise because of the nature of cement. Refer again to the Portland Cement Association website and their remarks on density.

Weight of 1 cubic meter of cement?

One cubic foot of concrete weighs about 144.05 lbs, so one cubic meter of concrete equals 2307.46 kg/m^3 or 5087.08 lb/m^3. This can vary depending on strength, additives, and other factors. ASTM C138/C138M-01a is the standard test method for finding the density (unit weight) of concrete.

How dense is concrete?

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.
