8 Sand - Pouring - Cylinder

This document contains the calibration form for a sand pouring cylinder used in construction projects. It lists the project name, contractor, authority engineer, and date of calibration. The form includes sections to record the weight of sand in the cylinder over three determinations to calculate the average weight. It also includes a section to determine the bulk density of the sand by measuring the weight of sand poured into a calibrated container and dividing by the container volume. The calibrated bulk density is an important parameter in construction projects.
