Density of water and gravitational constant ρ w = 1000 kg/m 3 ρ w = 1 g/cc ρ w = 62.4 lb/ft 3 g = 9.81 m/s 2 g = 32.2 ft/sec 2 Relative Density. Relative density is an index that quantifies the state of compactness between the loosest and densest possible state of coarse-grained soils. The relative density is written in the following formulas:

Nov 02, 2021 Density of sand (fine aggregate) is ranging between 1450 – 2082 kg/m 3 depending on different condition like wet, dry, loose, dry-packed, and wet packed.. Hereof, How many kg is 1m3 of sand? 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
