The video will briefly explain 1.54 factor in concrete at time of making calculation for converting wet volume to dry volume.
Volume of one cube contains length×width×height = 1 x 1 x 1 = 1 m3(wet volume)
If we transform wet volume into dry volume, then the dry volume is raised by 54% of wet volume.
Therefore, Dry volume = Wet Volume = 54% of wet volume = 1+(54/100×1)=1.54 m3
The proportion of Dry concrete to wet concrete is 1.54 : 1
This is applicable in estimation of the mix design calculations for concrete.
Watch the following video tutorial to get more detail information.
