| Cement bags |
As you know, the density of cement is 1440 kg/cum.
The weight of one bag of cement is 50 kg.
From density, we know that 1440 kg of cement will be one cum. by volume.
To get the volume of 1 bag of cement in cum., we will divide 50kg. by the density of the cement.
i.e. 50 kg ÷1440 kg/cum.
= 0.03472 cum.
Since 1 cum. is equal to 1000 liters,
The volume of one bag of cement in liters
The volume of one bag of cement in liters
=0.03472×1000
= 34.7 liters.
Similarly, the volume of cement bags in cu.ft.
=0.03472×35.315
= 1.226 cu.ft.
(as 1 cum. =35.315 cu.ft.).
