Slurry Yield Calculation

Given : DENSITY ( lb/gal ) or S.G.

94 + 8.32X
G =
3.59 + X

Example : Density 16.5 lb/gal

94 + 8.32X = 16.5 ( 3.59 + X ) = 94 + 8.32


16.5 =
3.59 + X = 59.235 + 16.5 X = 94 + 8.32
= 16.5 X - 8.32 X = 94 - 59.235
= 8.18 X = 34.765
X = 34.765
8.18

= 4.25 gal/sx ( water require )

Absolute Volume 1 sx of cement = 3.59 gal


Yield ( Gal of slurry per sx of cement )
= 3.59 + 4.25
= 7.84 gal/sx / 7.48 ( gal to cuft )
= 1.05 cuft/sx
