How do you proof that 1 cu ft of dry cement is 94 lbs?
The weight of dry cement can vary based on the specific type and brand. However, a common estimate is that 1 cubic foot of dry cement weighs approximately 94 pounds. This estimate is based on the density of the cement and may differ slightly depending on factors like moisture content and composition.
Why does a bag of cement weigh 94 pounds?
The weight of a 94 lb. sack of cement is incidental - the bag is packaged in that size in order to hold one cubic foot of cement, and 94 pounds is simply what one cubic foot of dry cement powder weighs. Mix design for concrete was originally performed by volume and not by weight. Mix designers were initially concerned about variations in density and thought volume would deliver the most consistent results. As time progressed, they found that mix design were not adversly affected when designed by weight, (which was also much simpler), and therefore became used industry wide. Because 94lbs of cement is, as noted above, what 1 cubic foot of cement weighs, the 94 lb sack was a backhanded way for the mix designers to check the weight calculations easily with known volumes.

The density of wet sand is 120 lbs per cubic foot the density of dry sand is 100 lbs per cubic foot if a truck delivers 135 cubic feet of wet sand back to the coast whats the wt of the water inside?
To find the weight of the water inside the wet sand, we first need to calculate the weight of the wet sand delivered: 135 cubic feet * 120 lbs/cubic foot = 16,200 lbs of wet sand. Next, we find the weight of the dry sand in the wet sand delivered: 135 cubic feet * 100 lbs/cubic foot = 13,500 lbs of dry sand. The weight of the water inside the wet sand is the the difference between the weight of the wet sand and the weight of the dry sand: 16,200 lbs (wet sand) - 13,500 lbs (dry sand) = 2,700 lbs of water.

What is the specific density of air?
The density of dry air is 1.29 grams per liter (.07967 pounds per cubic foot) at 32° Fahrenheit (0° Celsius), average sea level, and average barometric pressure (29.92 in of mercury [760 millimeters]). The weight of 1 cubic foot of dry air at 1 atmosphere of barometric pressure is:Temperature (Fahrenheit)Weight per cubic foot (pounds)50° 0.0778860°0.0764070°0.07495

Does sand retain moisture?
Dry sand weighs approximately 100 pounds per cubic foot. Wetted to achieve compaction, this sand could easily contain 10% moisture by weight, or 10 pounds of water per cubic foot of sand.Hope that helps...
