Choose Round Column (or Round Slab) on the calculator. Enter Height 4 ft (or 48 in) Enter Diameter 10 in. Calculate and the answer is 0.08 cubic yards for one concrete tube. Multiply 0.08 x 50 = 4 total cubic yards of concrete for 50 tubes. Note that this calculation is the volume of your tubes only and does not account for any overflow or loss ...

One cubic yard of concrete is equal to twenty seven (27) cubic feet of concrete. If you divide 4050 pounds by 27 cubic feet you get 150 pounds per cubic foot. The individual weights of aggregate, cement, sand, and water in a yard of concrete are: 517 pounds of cement (234 kg)
Where V = Total volume of reinforced concrete element Vs = Total volume of steel in the element volume w = unit weight of total volume (= 165 lb/ft3 according to frostryan's formula) wc = unit weight of concrete (= 150 lb/ft3 - a typical value) ws = unit weight of steel (= 490 lb/ft3) This seems pretty steep to me, but ymmv.
Calculating Quantities of Materials for per cubic meter or cubic feet or cubic yards concrete. Consider concrete with mix proportion of 1:1.5:3 where, 1 is part of cement, 1.5 is part of fine aggregates and 3 is part of coarse aggregates of maximum size of 20mm. The water cement ratio required for mixing of concrete is taken as 0.45.
Concrete mix estimation. Our mix-on-site concrete calculation is based on batching by volume (Large construction sites employ batching by weight which is more exact). You can also estimate the quantity of sand and gravel required by weight; Simply multiply the volumetric quantity of sand and gravel with 1400 kg/m 3 (bulk density of sand) and ...
The step-by-step design procedure for structural design of CFT and RCFT for bridge foundation applications is as follows: Step 1: Establish Material Properties . CFT piles, RCFT shaft, and their connections require three types of materials, including the concrete, the steel tube, and the reinforcing steel.
For slabs = 1.0 % of concrete volume. For Beam = 2 % concrete volume. For column = 2.5 % of concrete volume. For RCC Roads, 0.6% concrete volume. Lets take example of RCC Column, where reinforcement required is 2.5% of concrete volume, weight of steel required will be: =196.25 kg.

The concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) column system has many advantages compared with the ordinary steel or the reinforced concrete system. One of the main advantages is the interaction between the steel tube and concrete: local buckling of the steel tube is delayed by the restraint of the concrete, and the strength of concrete is increased by the confining effect of the steel tube.
The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a centrifugal hollow CFT using rib steel pipes. Instead of using a circular steel pipe, hot rolled coils are used to produce semi-circular shapes with c-shaped ribs at both ends to be joined without welding. The production of rib steel pipe is divided into two methods. The first method is to insert a pair of ribs each having c-shaped ...

Concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) columns are increasingly used in composite construction. Under axial compression, the steel tube will sustain partial axial force and meanwhile provides the confinement to the infill concrete. The high axial strength capacity of CFST columns is largely related to the confinement provided by the steel tube.
This paper summarizes a steel girder to concrete-filled steel tube (CFT) connection detail that has been designed for several recent projects constructed in Vancouver, WA, U.S.A. Several variations of CFT joints have been investigated experimentally [1], and it appears that continuing the girder through the CFT
Mix two 50lb bags of concrete with water in a mixing tub or 5-gallon bucket. Add concrete into the hole and around the 4" x 4". Depending on your climate, let concrete set up for 24 - 48 hours. The general rule of thumb when setting a post is that the depth of the post's hole needs to be 1/3 to 1/2 of the actual above-ground height of the ...
Abstract— The paper emphasis on an introduction and implementation of Concrete Filled Tubes (CFT) as a modern structural technology, which benefits advantages of both steel and concrete structures simultaneously. One of the main advantages to introduce CFT is the interaction between steel tube and concrete.
STEEL-CONCRETE COMPOSITE COLUMNS-I 1.0 INTRODUCTION A steel-concrete composite column is a compression member, comprising either a concrete encased hot-rolled steel section or a concrete filled tubular section of hot-rolled steel and is generally used as a load-bearing member in a composite framed structure.
The rule of thumb is to consider that a 94 lb. bag of cement will make one cubic foot when it is freshly packed. The density of lightweight concrete is 1920 kg per cubic meter or 116 lbs per cubic foot (3132 lbs per cubic yard). Lightweight concrete weighs less because it is made with an aggregate called pumice, a naturally light mineral.

reinforced concrete structures. The steel tube provides confinement to the concrete infill, while the concrete infill delays the local buckling of the steel tube. The behavior of CFT members under axial compression, flexure, and combined axial compression and flexure can be more efficient than that of bare steel or reinforced concrete members.

Concrete, which is a mix of water, aggregate, and cement, is most commonly sold by the cubic yard, but is also available in pre-mixed bags. It's important to calculate the amount of material needed as accurately as possible since you often only get one chance for the pour.
Concrete-Filled Tubes (CFT) are composite structural elements that consist of a steel tube with concrete infill. In CFT sections, neither formwork nor rebar is needed since the steel tube serves as both, which can reduce construction time and cost.
