Fill quantities and fill height of BBS005
BBS005 holds 2.00 m³ by calculation and carries 1,250 kg at safety factor 5:1. The table shows the weight of the full bag and the permitted fill height.
| Items | Material (guide value) | Bulk density t/m³ | Weight at full volume | max. fill height | Fill level |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BBS005 | Sand, dry | 1,50 | 3,000 kg | 83 cm of 200 cm | 42 % |
| BBS005 | Gravel, chippings | 1,60 | 3,200 kg | 78 cm of 200 cm | 39 % |
| BBS005 | Rubble, mixed | 1,40 | 2,800 kg | 89 cm of 200 cm | 45 % |
| BBS005 | Soil, excavated material | 1,60 | 3,200 kg | 78 cm of 200 cm | 39 % |
| BBS005 | Cement, loose | 1,20 | 2,400 kg | 104 cm of 200 cm | 52 % |
Guide values as in the Fill Limit Calculator; the measured bulk density of your material is what counts. With dry sand, BBS005 reaches the load capacity at 83 cm fill height.
Quantity planning with BBS005
How many BBS005 do you need for a given quantity of material? The table uses the nominal volume of 2.00 m³ and 220 pieces per pallet. With sand (1.50 t/m³), the load capacity of 1,250 kg limits the fill quantity per bag to 0.83 m³.
| Items | Material quantity | Bags at full volume | Pallets | Bags for sand at the load capacity limit | Pallets |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BBS005 | 10 m³ | 5 | 1 | 12 | 1 |
| BBS005 | 25 m³ | 13 | 1 | 30 | 1 |
| BBS005 | 50 m³ | 25 | 1 | 60 | 1 |
| BBS005 | 100 m³ | 50 | 1 | 120 | 1 |
Worked example for 100 m³ of material
How many BBS005 are needed depends on the density: with light material the volume of 2.00 m³ fills the bag; with heavy material the load capacity of 1,250 kg is reached earlier.
- Sand, dry (1.50 t/m³): 100 m³ weigh 150 t. One BBS005 takes 0.83 m³ or 1,250 kg; the load capacity of 1,250 kg sets the limit. You need 120 pieces, which is 1 pallets.
- Gravel, chippings (1.60 t/m³): 100 m³ weigh 160 t. One BBS005 takes 0.78 m³ or 1,250 kg; the load capacity of 1,250 kg sets the limit. You need 128 pieces, which is 1 pallets.
- Rubble, mixed (1.40 t/m³): 100 m³ weigh 140 t. One BBS005 takes 0.89 m³ or 1,250 kg; the load capacity of 1,250 kg sets the limit. You need 112 pieces, which is 1 pallets.
- Soil, excavated material (1.60 t/m³): 100 m³ weigh 160 t. One BBS005 takes 0.78 m³ or 1,250 kg; the load capacity of 1,250 kg sets the limit. You need 128 pieces, which is 1 pallets.
- Cement, loose (1.20 t/m³): 100 m³ weigh 120 t. One BBS005 takes 1.04 m³ or 1,250 kg; the load capacity of 1,250 kg sets the limit. You need 96 pieces, which is 1 pallets.
Handling of BBS005
- BBS005 has four lifting loops. With BBS005, always attach all four and close the outlet first.
- The inlet (swan neck) of BBS005, dimensions on request, is tied to the spout of the filling line. BBS005 has no outlet; the bottom is closed.
- BBS005 is uncoated. Store it dry and covered; the fabric absorbs moisture.
- When filled, BBS005 weighs up to 1,250 kg. Lifting equipment, lifting accessories and ground must be rated for this.
- A pallet holds 220 pieces of BBS005. Store unused bags in their original packaging.
Open details for BBS005
For BBS005 the data sheet gives one value unclearly or not at all: the fabric weight in g/m². It says “on request” there. We confirm the value in writing before your order. Plan lifting equipment, filling and number of pallets only with it, and ask via the enquiry form.
