Gravel density and calculation basis

Gravel is represented in this table by a fixed reference density of 1700 kg/m^3, equivalent to 1.7 g/cm^3. Representative compacted gravel bulk density.

At this fixed reference, 1 liter of Gravel corresponds to 1.7 kg, while 1 kg corresponds to 0.588235 liters. Its table density is 70.5% higher than the 997 kg/m^3 water reference used in this dataset.

Among the 11 fixed table records labeled Construction materials, the nearest density to Gravel is Brick at 1800 kg/m^3: an absolute difference of 100 kg/m^3 (5.9% relative to Gravel). 3 records have a lower fixed density and 7 have a higher one. The observed range in this labeled group is Topsoil at 1200 kg/m^3 to Granite at 2750 kg/m^3. This is a numerical comparison, not a claim that the materials are interchangeable.

For this direction, volume is calculated as mass divided by density after normalizing the units to kilograms and cubic meters. The resulting page multiplier is 1.127778 cup (US) per lb.

The fixed value supports repeatable calculations but is not a batch, grade, supplier, or laboratory specification. Use a measured or certified density when those conditions control the result.
