Methodology

Gravel density and calculation basis

Evidence status: needs-review.

Gravel bulk density depends on grading, moisture and compaction.

moisture: Dry

packing: Bank

Source basis: Caterpillar, Earthwork volumes reference tables. Gravel, dry: bank column. https://www.cat.com/en_US/articles/ci-articles/earthwork-volumes-reference-tables.html Applicability: conditional-comparison.

Source basis: Caterpillar, Earthwork volumes reference tables. Gravel, dry: loose column. https://www.cat.com/en_US/articles/ci-articles/earthwork-volumes-reference-tables.html Applicability: conditional-comparison.

Establish aggregate grading and compacted-volume convention.

For this direction, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 3,747.858 lb per m^3.

Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.
