USEFUL DATE FOR CALCULATING DENSITY AND CONVERSION FACTOR CALCULATOR

 There are 6 material on site should everyone know the density value.These useful data as a reference  when carry out excavation.transportation,lifting and  etc.Thsi data also used when  want to order a suitable machinery to lift and transport the material from one place to another place.Safety factor is the most important element used these data to prevent accident at site.

• Soil- dry 2000 kg/m3-2.0 tonne/m3
• wet 1800 kg/m3-1.8 tonne/m3
• Timber- 800 kg/m3-1200 kg/m3-0.8 tonne/m3 to 1.2 tonne/m3
• Re bar - table read more
• Wet Concrete-  2400 kg/m3-2.4 tonne/m3
• Pure Water- 1000 kg/m3- 1.0 tonne /m3
• Rock - 2200kg/m3-3000 kg/m3-2.2 tonne/m3-3.0 tonne/m3

conversion factor

• mass 1000 kg=1 tonne=10 KN
• mas water 1m3= 1 litre
• mass timber m3= total length x timber size x unit mass per m3
• mass re bar m=total length x unit mass per length 

capacity of transportation

• 6 tonnes lorry can transport- 3 m3 of soil
•  3 m3 of timber
• 3 m3 of water
• 2.5 m3 of rock
• 40 tonnes of trellar can transport- 40 bundle of re bar
• 1 lorry of ready mix concrete can transport 5 m3 to 9 m3 of wet concrete

these information are also used for calculating;

• v.o quantity calculating
• to choose the suitable excavation machinery
• to choose a suitable lifting machinery
• to manage ordering and delivering material at site
