Feeling Cheated? Here's How To Estimate/calculate Sand Quantity by tendareo: 1:20pm On Nov 07, 2018
Happy new month esteemed readers!


As we gradually move towards the close of 2018, I thought to drop a post relating to sand, how to calculate and estimate its quantity so you won't feel cheated by sellers.


The density of sand is affected by whether the sand is packed (rammed) or loose, and whether it is wet or dry.


When it is packed, the grains of sand are forced into a tighter formation and more matter is in the volume.


When the sand is wet, water is in the sand, also affecting the total matter in the volume.


The mean density of the different conditions of sand are as follows:


Loose Sand: 1442 kg/m3. This dry sand has been moved or otherwise agitated to loosen the natural packing process.


Dry Sand: 1602 kg/m3. This is sand in its natural undisturbed form where it has been partially packed by rain and gravity over time but is now dry.
