1 ton 10mm 20mm & 40mm aggregate convert to cft, hi guys in this article we know about 1 ton aggregate (stone chips) weight convert into cubic feet (cft) of different size 10mm, 20mm and 40 mm. Aggregate another name is stone chips categorised into two types of fine aggregate and coarse aggregate.
We know that aggregate is consist of fine aggregate and coarse aggregate of different size 10 mm, 20 mm and 40mm. 10 mm size of aggregate is fine aggregate and 20 mm and 40 mm aggregate is coarse aggregregate.

Aggregate or stone chips are used in Building, Bridge, dams Construction aggregate, or simply aggregate, is a broad category of coarse- to medium-grained particulate material used in construction, including sand, gravel, crushed stone, slag, recycled concrete and geosynthetic aggregates. Aggregates are the most mined materials in the world.
Generally fine aggregate consist of sand silt clay and coarse aggregate consists fine gravel medium gravel coarse gravel pebbles cobbles and boulders.
Fine aggregate having size less than 4.75 mm and coarse aggregate size ranging between more than 4.75 mm to 256 mm.
All types of aggregates measured in cubic metre and cubic feet and ton at construction site and we have know about how to convert 1 ton aggregate into cubic feet (cft) and 1 cubic feet aggregate into to kilogram and ton. Because it will be sometime sell & purchase in per ton and other in per cubic feet (CFT). sometime when we go through the interview and facing questions it will ask how 1 ton aggregate to cubic feet and also 1 ton aggregate in cft used for billing purpose.

We know that while finding the bulk density of different types of aggregate their value is not fixed but it depends on handling how you can handle the aggregate. So density of aggregate is not fix but it ranging between 1420 kg/m3 to 1680 kg/m3.
Weight of aggregate in kilogram depends on density of aggregate and size of aggregate. Lesser dimension of aggregate have high density due to less presence of air voids & higher dimension of aggregate have lower density due to higher presence of air voids.
Density of 10mm,20mm and 40mm aggregate ranging between 1420 kg/m3 to 1680 kg/m3, consider density of 10mm,20mm & 40mm aggregate is equal to 1680 kg/m3, 1550kg/m3 & 1450 kg/m3 respectively. it means weight of 1 cubic metre of 10mm size aggregate is equal to 1680 kgs,weight of 1 cubic metre of 20mm size aggregate is equal to 1550 kgs & weight of 1 cubic metre of 40mm size aggregate is equal to 1450 kgs.
1 ton 10mm 20mm & 40mm aggregate convert to cubic feet (cft)
1 ton 10mm aggregate to cubic feet (cft) :– 10mm aggregate or stone chips is categories as fine aggregate, dry density of 10mm aggregate = 1680 kg/m3, it means 1m3 of 10mm aggregate weight is 1680kg or 1.6ton, 1 ton = 1000kg, 1 ton 10mm aggregate or stone chips to cubic meter = 1000/1680 = 0.5950 m3, and we know that 1m3 = 35.32 cft, 1 ton 10mm aggregate to cft = 0.5950 × 35.32 = 21, so 1 ton 10mm aggregate is equal to 21 cubic feet (cft).
1 ton 20mm aggregate to cubic feet (cft) :– 20mm aggregate or stone chips is categories as coarse aggregate, dry density of 20mm aggregate = 1550 kg/m3, it means 1m3 of 20mm aggregate weight is 1550kg or 1.55ton, 1 ton = 1000kg, 1 ton 20mm aggregate or stone chips to cubic meter = 1000/1550 = 0.6450 m3, and we know that 1m3 = 35.32 cft, 1 ton 20mm aggregate to cft = 0.6450 × 35.32 = 22.78, so 1 ton 20mm aggregate is equal to 22.78 cubic feet (cft).
1 ton 40mm aggregate to cubic feet (cft) :- 40mm aggregate or stone chips is categories as coarse aggregate, dry density of 40mm aggregate = 1450 kg/m3, it means 1m3 of 40mm aggregate weight is 1450kg or 1.45ton, 1 ton = 1000kg, 1 ton 40mm aggregate or stone chips to cubic meter = 1000/1450 = 0.6896 m3, and we know that 1m3 = 35.32 cft, 1 ton 40mm aggregate to cft = 0.6896 × 35.32 = 24.36, so 1 ton 40mm aggregate is equal to 24.36 cubic feet (cft).
