@@michaelparionaramos4097 The pot was tared, meaning that when he took the empty pot off of the scale after the scale was zeroed, the scale reads the negative weight of the empty pot. So when he puts the pot back on to the scale when it's filled, it subtracts the weight of the pot for you. That allows you to essentially weigh ONLY the mass of concrete. Doing that means that you don't actually have to use the mass of the empty pot in the equation.
Hey Jimmy, you record the weight prior to the tare. You can see this graphic representation on the screen as we do it. As long as you note this, you can account for it in the end. There’s more than just a single way to do this.
Well with most if not all calibrated scales once you get the weight of the pot and get the tare the scale resets to 0 then once the pot is removed it would show into the negative. Example. If the pot is 8lbs and you get a tare down to 0 once the pot is removed the scale will read -8lbs if I’m not mistaken.
32.865 lbs is the weight of the concrete without the weight of the container/mold. So you're subtracting 7.79 lb that was Already Subtracted. That's where the error is.
I’m ACI certified for field tech grade 1 but I still come back to these videos because they’re so well made. Good work
dear which test include grade1?
What is aci....

Thanks for sharing.

We do that so different in Australia.
Because you’re all criminals
NICE SKECHERS
How did you get the mold volume
All meters come machined to a precise size from the manufacturer, 0.25 cuft
By measuring the weight of water of the container considering volumetric correction factor depending on water temperature.
32.865÷0.2504=131.25
Where is the weight of empty measure?

@@babdabubda5266 Thank you very much for the brilliant explanation.
@@michaelparionaramos4097 Haha of course man, have a good one.
no gloves?
sweet, thanks
Safety issue! No gloves, concrete is caustic to the skin.
Some of us don't have an issue with it
Hes using fly ash, but yes you can get some pretty bad concrete burns from this
Sir, you don't zero the scale AFTER you get the tare weight. Pointless to get a tare weight if you zero it out. Therefore your math is now wrong.

Is the required frequency of this test daily or weekly per mix design?
kromekicks depends on the job and what engineers want you to do
Some projects it's daily, fdot it's a must..some commercial projects also
(Weight of concrete + Weight of empty measure) - weight of measure / volume
(32.865 - 7.79) lb / .25 FT CUBE
100.3 LB/FT CUBE IS THE DENSITY
32.865 lbs is the weight of the concrete without the weight of the container/mold. So you're subtracting 7.79 lb that was Already Subtracted. That's where the error is.
is the math correct?
I think it’s wrong I got a different result! I got D=100.3
