Asphalt density and calculation basis

Asphalt is represented in this table by a fixed reference density of 2400 kg/m^3, equivalent to 2.4 g/cm^3. Typical compacted asphalt density.

At this fixed reference, 1 liter of Asphalt corresponds to 2.4 kg, while 1 kg corresponds to 0.416667 liters. Its table density is 140.7% 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 Asphalt is Concrete at 2400 kg/m^3: an absolute difference of 0 kg/m^3 (0.0% relative to Asphalt). 6 records have a lower fixed density and 3 have a higher one. 1 other record shares the same fixed density. 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, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 20.028971 lb per gal (US).

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.
