Calibration of Sand Pouring Cylinder

Format · IS 2720 (Part 28) · weight of sand in cone, bulk density of sand

Type A and B for the cone, then W1, W2 and V for the bulk density, or leave the sheet empty to print a blank format. C, W3, W4, bulk density, the averages and the results are worked out as you type (W4 uses the average C). This calibration is shared by the Soil and every layer group. Typed values are saved for this project.
