I think this might have come up a few months ago, but I don't recall anyone
having a definitive answer. Can anyone come up with a way to calculate
thousands-of-pounds-per-sack-of-concrete?
If 6-sack mix is a 7000 pound mix, is it a linear function for the other
combinations or are there other variables involved? Does the
sand/aggregate affect the result? I've asked local folks here who should
know, but received different answers, so I am turning to the ultimate brain
trust: what say the towertalkians?!
