Concrete Density

Reinforced Concrete (RCC)

Concrete embedded with steel reinforcement bar (rebar). The structural benchmark for beams, foundations, columns, and heavy driveways.

Technical Specifications

Parameter Standard Value
Actual Dimensions N/A
Unit Weight / Density 150 lbs/ft³ (2,400 kg/m³)
Estimated Price Range $140 - $180 per cubic yard
Average Density 150 lbs/cu ft
Compressive Rating 3,000 - 4,500 PSI
Steel Weight Share Approx. 1% to 2%

Overview & Cost Implications

Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) incorporates steel rebar to handle tensile stresses. The standard density is calculated at 150 lbs per cubic foot to accommodate the additional weight of structural steel grids.

Standard Formula Used

For estimating materials quantity and weight on job sites, estimators use this mathematical model:

Weight = Wet Volume × Density (2,400 kg/m³)
