Bulk Phosphate Stowage Factor (SF) about 0.90 m 3 /ton (32 ft 3 /ton) In fact, Ship A has space for 55,000 mtons on her holds 70,000/0.90 = 77,000 mtons or 2,470,000/32 = 77,000 mtons (rounded) However, Ship A can only take 55,000 mtons in weight of Bulk Phosphate before Ship A loadline is submerged Stowage Factor (SF) Example 2: Ship B
The sand equivalent test quantifies the relative abundance of sand versus clay in soil. It is measured by standardized test methods such as ASTM D2419, AASHTO T176, and EN 933–8. [ 1 ] The test is used to qualify aggregates for applications where sand is desirable but fines and dust are not.
where q represents the mass transport of sand across a lane of unit width; C is a dimensionless constant of order unity that depends on the sand sorting; is the density of air; g is the local gravitational acceleration; d is the reference grain size for the sand; D is the nearly uniform grain size originally used in Bagnold's experiments (250 ...

The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

A mass-derived unit of volume is defined by reference to the density of some material. One common such material is water, used in multiple units. For the cubic ton, the situation is more complex—there are different cubic tons for different materials. The 1964 Reader's Digest Great Encyclopaedic Dictionary gave the following ton-derived volumes:
