The volume of the concrete is wrong. There is no evidence that the concrete slab is up to 36.6 cm thick. It should only calculate Px thickness as seen from the image. Or Standard concrete floor slab (4 inchar) and It’s not Pulverization. It's too much speculation. Fragmentation is the safest. Since the concrete is just broken down and pushed down, the rest of the volume is the soil.

So bending of wood + fragging of a 4 inch thick concrete slab spherical cap slice + compression of soil spherical cap?

And yeah, gonna be honest- the whole crater in floor = pulverization logic kinda bothered considering how it meant that shallow, less than human-sized dents in the ground made folk Small Building level. (See this calc for an extreme example- high Wall level+ but you get the idea)

I'm not sure. Do volleyball courts always have concrete floor slab? Because each structure may not be exactly the same. But if using concrete, the thickness of 36.6 cm will not be accurate, and if Px is measured from the picture, there is no sure that the concrete will have that thickness, so using Standard concrete floor slab seems safer.

Yeah, it seems a bit exaggerated.
 
Most of the structures I could find had concrete slabs, the only difference was the thickness of the concrete. Some places have reinforced concrete and crushed stone mixed in.

So should just use Standard concrete floor slab instead?
 
I checked it out, not sure what else is left to do.

What should I do with my calculation? Should I fix it as suggested by second22?


This is the result if I do what second22 suggest.

Calculation​

Scan
  • Standard concrete floor thickness = 4" | 10.16cm
  • Concrete floor radius1 = 139.4cm
  • Concrete flooe radius2 = 125.7cm

Volume​

Energy

  • Frag of concrete 6J/cc
  • 561292.82822057 * 6 = 3367756.96932
 
IMO, what they (Second) suggested sounds like the best way to do it... And funny enough, we also have made ourselves round SxF all the way back to Wall Level. Heh.
 
Honestly, can't decide to laugh at this development or just be mildly annoyed that everything just went back to square one... One thing I have to say is that I blame the dum dum who went ahead and updated Yor and Loid's profiles without making a new thread about it first or informing everybody they were going to do it before the fact.
 
Welp, I should ask... Assuming that there is no objections from the mods to just using the old calc, since there is nothing actually wrong with it, do we just need to revert Yor and Loid's pages to how they used to be before all of this downgrade/upgrade stuff all happened?

Me stare at @ElajRuengies @Peppersalt43 menacingly

You haven't done the soil and wood part yet. It could have been higher result and the volume of concrete used the same Spherical Cap, just removed the soil part.
 
Wait, I don't think it has been approved

I don't think I ever actually got a link so uh, what's the AP value of that ball getting kicked to space?
No it's not, that's the AP value of the original crater calc, the Escape Velocity KE of a Volleyball is
Volleyball Mass- 0.27 kg, plus escape Velocity- 11000 m/s, would've resulted in 16.335 Megajoules in the KE formula, or Wall level+
Although more specifically Earth's escape velocity is 11.186 km/s, so 0.27 * 0.5 * 11186^2 = 16,892,090.46 joules, or ~16.89 Megajoules

Bending of wood and compression of soil are nearly negligible though...
There is quite a lot of volume in the soil left, probably up to 100000 J to 500000 J. Yeah, just have to make it right. Anyway, still going to use the KE of volleyball. So no matter how much
