Dear Sirs, Would you please give an example how to calculate weight of MS Pipe using below formula?
SS / MS Pipe
OD ( mm) – W.Tthick(mm) X W.Thick (mm) X 0.0248 = Weight Per Metre
OD ( mm) – W.Tthick(mm) X W.Thick (mm) X 0.00756 = Weight Per Foot
With best regards.
Can you suggest a laboratory that can determine the compressive strength of 13 mm lightweight aggregate for me?

We have 20000 sqft of concrete terrace surface paved with terracotta/clay tiles with inter-tile space filled with cement. Is there any product or solutions to water-proof the surface without removing the clay tiles? Or, is there any adhesive material to seal the inter tile space since the cement grout holding it is slowly wearing out?
