Depending on the use of the concrete, between 5-6 bags.
One cubic meter of concrete is equal to 1.308 cubic yards of concrete. If there are 5 1/2 bags of cement in 1 cubic yard of concrete, there would be 7.2 bags in 1 cubic meter of concrete. These are the 94 pound bags of portland cement or roughly 40kg bags so figure 8 bags total. Some will be left over
An 80-pound bag of sacked concrete typically yields about 0.6 cubic feet of concrete. A standard 12-inch concrete block has a volume of approximately 0.5 cubic feet. Therefore, an 80-pound bag can fill about 1 to 1.2 blocks, depending on the specific dimensions and any extra material needed for mortar or adjustments.
Refer to the definition of density: density = mass / volume. Also, each substance has its characteristic density, independent of its size. A pound of cement will have the same density as a ton of cement. And cement is more dense than rice, regardless of how big a chunk of each you take.
You calculate the total cost of 1 cubic meter reinforcement cement for heavy foundation work by adding all of the costs. Essentially you would have to figure out the total of pounds of concrete for 1 cubic meter multiply that by the cost per pound and then add in the cost of labor it takes to pour 1 cubic meter.
Approx. 4500 bees make a pound.
To find out how many 94-pound bags of Portland cement are needed for a yard of sand, you typically use a 1:2:3 mix ratio (cement, sand, gravel) for concrete. Since a yard of sand weighs about 1,600 pounds, you'll need approximately 533 pounds of cement for that mix. Given that each bag of Portland cement weighs 94 pounds, you would need about 6 bags (533 ÷ 94 ≈ 5.67). Therefore, you would need 6 bags of Portland cement for a yard of sand.
Forty five 80 pound bags of cement are needed to make one cubic yard of concrete.
It can be both, depending on packaging. By "cement" you're talking plain ol' Portland Cement for making concrete, correct? In bulk it's a commodity; in 94-pound bags it's a product.
1 94-pound bag of cement is approximately equal to 1 cubic foot.
To answer this question we must first differentiate between concrete and cement. Concrete is the finished product when cement is used. Analogous to bread is the finished product when flour is used. Got it? As to how many cups in a pound of powder, consider that there are 16 ounces to the pound, and eight ounces to a cup. That makes it two cups to the pound of cement. How much concrete that would make is another matter.
To determine how many bags of cement are needed for 11 yards of concrete, you first need to know the concrete mix ratio. A common mix is 1:2:3 (cement:sand:gravel). For a standard 80-pound bag of cement, it typically yields about 0.6 cubic feet of concrete. Since there are 27 cubic feet in a yard, 11 yards equals 297 cubic feet. Using a standard mix, approximately 7 to 8 bags of cement would be needed for this volume, depending on the specific mix and design requirements.
An 80-pound bag of premixed cement = .667 cubic feet, or 2/3 of a cubic foot, of concrete. A 60-pound bag of premixed cement = .5 cubic feet, or 1/2 of a cubic foot, of concrete.
One cubic meter of concrete is equal to 1.308 cubic yards of concrete. If there are 5 1/2 bags of cement in 1 cubic yard of concrete, there would be 7.2 bags in 1 cubic meter of concrete. These are the 94 pound bags of portland cement or roughly 40kg bags so figure 8 bags total. Some will be left over
No, a 60 pound bag of cement does not weigh the same when it is turned into dried concrete. Once mixed with water and set, the weight of the dried concrete will be slightly more than the original weight of the bag of cement due to the water and other additives in the mixture.
Typically, one 50-pound bag of concrete is needed per fence post.
The number of bags of cement needed per ton of sand depends on the specific mix ratio being used for concrete. A common mix ratio is 1 part cement to 2 parts sand to 4 parts gravel, which translates to about 0.5 tons of cement for every ton of sand. Therefore, if using 94-pound bags of cement, approximately 10 bags would be needed per ton of sand. However, it's essential to adjust the ratio based on the desired strength and application of the concrete.
There should be three quarters of a pound of sand. If the cement is reinforced then add 25 percent more.
