need to convert fly ash (95 tons) with specific gravity of 2.87 to cubic yards and convert cement (145 tons) with specific gravity of 3.15 to cubic yards
Tweet. #2. 01-26-2007, 11:02 PM. Re: Salt conversion from cubic yards to tons. I did some searching and found the density of Halite, which is rock salt, and it has a density of 2.1 g/cm3. That means its about 0.84 U.S. short tons per cubic yard. cubic yards * 0.84 tons/cubic yard = tons. Flag.
Re: formula for cubic yards asphalt to tons length x width x inches thick for asphalt mat divided by 160 equals tonnage formula Note example 100w x 75L = 7500 x 3 inches deep = 22500 divided by 160 = 140.6 tons asphalt for proposed job calculation you must however take into consideration the smoothness of the base material density of the asphalt itself ex topping, binder, intermediate mix etc ...
Gravel, wet 1/4 to 2 inch - 1.69 tons/cubic yard. Depends on the type of gravel. I will show an example using loose dry gravel from the above list... 416 cubic yards * 1.28 tons/cubic yard = 532.48 tons (U.S. short tons) Just replace the density with the correct density from the list, depending on the type of gravel.
The bank cubic yard is "as is" in the ground. When you dig it up, the volume will increase, so there would be more losse cubic yards. Assuming the numbers are reversed by the 1.15 factor is right, it would be 1.725 tons per banked cubic yard. Flag.
According to Reade, moist excavated earth has a density of 90 pounds/cubic foot. That is about 1.215 U.S. ton/cubic yard. 17.9 ton / 1.215 ton/cubic yard = 14.73 cubic yards Assuming U.S. short tons. Flag.
Then 1 litre of volume (1000cc) would equal 4 X 900g or 3.6kg. Check your conversion chart for cc's to cubic yards then multiply the converted number by the weight (in our example 3.6kg) and you have the weight in kg's for 1 cubic yard. 1 metric tonne = 1000kgs or if you want imperial convert tonnes into tons. Regards.
According to Reade, sewage sludge has a density of about 45 pounds/cubic foot. That is about 0.608 U.S. ton/cubic yard. For U.S. short tons, the formulas would be: cubic yards * 0.608 = tons. tons / 0.608 = cubic yards. 260 cubic yards * 0.608 = 158.08 tons.
Re: cubic yards to tons Hi, easiest to convert cubic yards to cubic meters first, as g/cm^3 is the same as kg/m^3. 583cubic yards = 446m^3. The weight of 446 cubic meters of material of density 0.7 is 446 x 0.7 = 312 kg. 0.7 would be a very low density for any type of sand.
11-05-2009, 08:56 PM. Re: How Do You Convert Cubic Yards To Tons? the answer is L X W X D but you must convert your 4 inches into feet. 12 divided by 4 whcich gives you .33. L X W X .33 divided by 20, that will give you tons of base course. Flag.
