RCC Pipe Weight Calculation

                   RCC Pipe Weight Calculation

 For Example we consider 200mm RCC Pipe

 

Inner Diameter of Pipe (ID) (R₁) = 20cm = 0.2m

Outer Diameter of Pipe (OD) (R₂) = 25cm = 0.25m

Length of RCC Pipe L = 1m

Density of RCC = 2500 kg/m³

We need to calculate Volume of RCC Pipe

The Volume of OD = Лr₁² x L

 

The Volume of ID = Лr₂² x L

 

Total Volume of RCC Pipe = Л x (Лr₂² - Лr₁² ) x L = Л x {(0.25)²-(0.2)²} x 1 = 0.07068 m³

 

Now the weight of RCC Pipe Calculation

Weight of RCC Pipe = Volume of RCC Pipe x Density of Material

0.07068 x 2500 = 176.714 Kg

Weight of RCC Pipe is 176.714 Kg

Difference between Hume pipe and Spun Pipe

RCC Pipe is known as a Hume pipe and also Spun Pipe only difference is the manufacturing process. This type of pipe Majorly used in Sewage or Drainage line project as well as in Irrigation & Culverts Projects.

RCC Hume pipe available in Diameter of 100mm, 150mm, 200mm, 250mm, 300mm, 350mm, 400mm, and 450mm etc. NP2, NP3, NP4 this such type of varies classification in RCC Hume pipe. This classification pipe manufacturing Process follow as per IS458(2003) Specification.

usually Collar Joint type of used in Drainage line Project.

Advantage of RCC Pipe-

* Much better than M.S.Pipe or Metal Pipe in Cost, The cost of the pipe as low as compare to M.S.Pipe or Metal Pipe

* RCC pipe anti Rusting (in Metal Pipe more chances of Rusting)

* It is suitable and useful in any Soft Soil.

A disadvantage of RCC Pipe-

* RCC Hume pipe difficult to Shifting mostly used heavy equipment/Machinery in shifting process.

* Tough for handing and laying process in hard murum and Rock as well as in Depth, it takes to much time for abject level and Joints
