Methodology
Sand (Dry) density and calculation basis
Evidence status: needs-review.
Dry sand bulk density depends on grading and packing.
moisture: Dry
packing: Bank (in situ)
Source basis: Caterpillar, Earthwork volumes reference tables. Sand, 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. Sand, dry: loose column. https://www.cat.com/en_US/articles/ci-articles/earthwork-volumes-reference-tables.html Applicability: conditional-comparison.
Resolve bank versus loose/compacted state and particle distribution.
For this direction, volume is calculated as mass divided by density after normalizing the units to kilograms and cubic meters. The resulting page multiplier is 42,267.528 tbsp (US) per t.
Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.
