Concrete paving slab weights?
wrote:
Generally speaking and good for rough calculations, all stone, rock,
concrete weighs 10 stone per cubic foot. ( i think some heavy granites can
weigh just over 11.)
Very useful rule of thumb!
Just checked it - comes out at 2260Kg m^3, so sounds about right for
concrete.
That's not too far away. I work on 2360kg/m3 for plain dense concrete
and 2400kg/m3 for reinforced concrete. And I'm a structural engineer,
so I must know what I'm talking about !
