1 Cubic meter River & M sand weight in kg & ton

1 Cubic meter River & M sand weight in kg & ton, hi guys in this article we know about 1 cubic metre sand weight in kg & ton and weight of 1 cubic metre of river sand and M sand.

Generally sand measured in various unit like cubic metre (m3), cubic feet (cft), kilogram (kg) and ton.

Let us discuss first, Types of sand used in construction industry, there is Two types of sand which are extensively used in construction industry is naturally present River sand and artificial human made M sand by crushing of stone.

Do you know what is M sand? it is artificial and manufactured sand by crushing of granite stone in Crusher mill, it has fine particles used for construction line in various work like plastering of brick wall, brick work masonry, cement mortar,concrete formation, roof slab casting and formation of column, beam, footing and slab.

What is M sand full form? Generally M sand full form is manufactured sand, artificial sand or human-made. It is partial replacement of river sand in today construction line.

Do you know what is River sand? River sand is found in river basin, beach & desert areas naturally, the sand which are collected naturally from riverbed and basin for various purpose in construction line are known as the river sand.

River sand are formed by weathering and disintegration of various types of rocks slowly like granite rocks, besalt rock, igneous rocks, sedimentary and Metamorphic rock. Generally river sand is mixture of Metamorphic, sedimentary rocks and igneous rocks.

It is naturally available and extracted from the river beds or riverbank. Naturally, river sand easy available in the market, this sand larges use in construction.

1 Cubic meter River & M sand weight in kg & ton

Weight of river and M sand calculated in terms of m3 (cubic metre) & CFT (cubic feet).

Sand is one of the important ingredients at making concrete mortar & plaster, etc.
Earth scientists and organizations are now promoting the use of M-Sand(Manufactured Sand).

While measuring the quantity of sand at construction site in cubic meter you have the choice of selecting which type of sand you have required for purchasind for construction. If you purchase M sand then 1 cubic meter of M sand weight is slightly higher than River sand.

Generally sand available in market are in various categories wet loose sand, wet compact sand, dry loose sand & dry compact sand, All of category of sand some weight are vary. But in this calculation we take average

Average density of sand is 1620 kg/m3, it means 1620 kg sand occupy 1 cubic metre of space or container, 1 cubic meter sand weight = 1620kg, so 1620kg is weight of 1 cubic meter sand.

Sand weight per cubic meter:- sand density is 1620kgs/m3, it means 1m3 sand weight is 1620kgs, so sand weight is 1600kgs per cubic metre.

1 cubic meter sand weight = 1620kg, we have to convert sand weight in kg to ton, as we know 1 ton = 1000kg, so we divide by 1000, we will get 1 cubic metre sand weight = 1620/1000 = 1.6 ton, so 1.62 ton is weight of 1 cubic metre sand.

1 cubic meter River sand weight: River sand is found in river basin, beach & desert areas naturally, the sand which are collected naturally from riverbed and basin for various purpose in construction line are known as the river sand. People have choice to purchase river sand for their construction work. And they were want to know weight of 1 cubic metre of river sand

Average density of River sand is 1650 kg/m3, it means 1650 kg river sand occupy 1 cubic metre of space or container, 1 cubic meter of River sand weight = 1650kg, so 1650kg is weight of 1 cubic meter of river sand.

1 cubic meter river sand weight = 1650kg, we have to convert river sand weight in kg to ton, as we know 1 ton = 1000kg, so we divide by 1000, we will get 1 cubic metre river sand weight = 1650/1000 = 1.65 ton, so 1.65 ton is weight of 1 cubic metre river sand.

1 cubic meter M sand weight: M sand is artificial and manufactured sand by crushing of granite stone in Crusher mill, it has fine particles used for construction line in various work like plastering of brick wall, brick work masonry, cement mortar,concrete formation, roof slab casting and formation of column, beam, footing and slab. M sand weight is slightly higher than River sand.

Average density of M sand is 1750 kg/m3, it means 1750 kg M sand occupy 1 cubic metre of space or container, 1 cubic meter of M sand weight = 1750kg, so 1750kg is weight of 1 cubic meter of M sand.

1 cubic meter M sand weight = 1750kg, we have to convert M sand weight in kg to ton, as we know 1 ton = 1000kg, so we divide by 1000, we will get 1 cubic metre M sand weight = 1750/1000 = 1.75 ton, so 1.75 ton is weight of 1 cubic metre M sand.
