Sixty Degreeness:

"... The particles which make up cement are sifted sand and gravel, which, though they look rough, pack averagedly as spheres would pack-- in 60-degree angular packing. Few people think of cement that way, but if it is shaken down, agitated well, and lubricated together with a colloid, it will automatically avail itself of nature's tetrahedral structuring in 'closest packing' pattern."
