Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFExplanation:
Cement is used as a binding material in mortar and concrete.
The volume of one bag of cement = 0.0347 m3
If we want to calculate how this value come then we know, \(density = \frac{{weight}}{{volume}}\)
The density of cement is 1440 kg/m3 and the weight of one bag of cement is 50 kg.
So, \(Volume= \frac{{50}}{{1440}}\) = 0.0347 m3 OR 35 Lit
Important Points
Specific gravity of cement = 3.15
Water required per bag of cement for complete hydration = 12 kg to 19 kg
