How much does flowable fill weigh?
between 70 and 145 pounds per cubic foot
The unit weight of flowable fill mixtures typically ranges between 70 and 145 pounds per cubic foot.
How much does flowable fill shrink?
10.4 mm per m
Flowable fill shall have minimal subsidence and bleed water shrinkage. Evaporation of bleed water shall not result in shrinkage of more than 10.4 mm per m (1/8 inch per foot) of flowable fill depth (for mixes containing high fly ash content).
What strength is flowable fill?
8.3 MPa
Flowable fill is defined by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) as a self-compacting cementitious material that is in a flowable state at placement and has a compressive strength of 8.3 MPa (1,200 lb/in2) or less at 28 days.
How strong is flowable fill concrete?
Flowable fill is defined by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) as a self-compacting cementitious material that is in a flowable state at placement and has a compressive strength of 8.3 MPa (1,200 lb/in2) or less at 28 days.
How do you measure flowable fill?
Calculate the volume of the trench by using this formula: Volume = Width x Length x Depth. As an example, a trench 12 feet long with an average width of 2.3 feet and an average depth of 5 feet has a volume equal to (12 x 2.3 x 5), or 138 cubic feet.
How strong is flowable fill?
Is flowable fill structural?
Flowable fill is sometimes referred to as controlled density fill (CDF), controlled low strength material (CLSM), lean concrete slurry, and unshrinkable fill. Flowable fill materials will be used as only as a structural fill replacement on VA projects.
How do you calculate concrete slurry?
Add up the weight column (lb). Add up the volume column (gal). Divide the weight by the volume to obtain the slurry weight in lb per gal.
How much does concrete slurry weigh?
Slurry density is also determined. Since one sack of cement weighs 94 lbs, and 0.693 ft3 of water weighs 43.2 lbs, when mixed they yield 137.2 lbs of slurry.
What is slurry weight?
The slurry density is the weight per unit volume of the solid-liquid mixture. In most production cases, with low concentration solids such as 100 ppmw or 100 mg/l, the slurry density will be nearly identical to the liquid density.
How is slurry weight calculated?
SD = 100 / (C / ds + (100-C) / dl )
- Where SD is the Slurry Density (kg/m^3)
- C is the concentration of solids by weight (%)
- ds is the density of the solids (kg/m^3)
- dl is the density of the liquid without solids (kg/m^3)
