lenth*breth*thickness*2.45= /total volume of dump truk
Any number that you like: it depends how high the asphalt is stacked!
use a measuring wheel
1 tons / 1000 = kg
Length x width x depth in inches. Then x .00625 = tons
There is no formula for measuring the volume of irregular shapes. The mass can be measured by using a weighing scale.
the formula for figuring out asphalt is.. L x W x D x 110 / 9 / 2000 = tons of asphalt. Where: L = Length in feet W = Width in feet D = Depth in inches 110 = a average weight of a square foot asphalt 1 inch thick /9 = convert to square yards /2000 = convert weight to tons So.. 27707 x 3 x 110 / 9 / 2000 = 508 tons.
The density of this substance is 2.6 tons per cubic meter. You can find this out by using the formula for density.
The answer requires the average thickness and density of the asphalt.

The Asphalt density is missing.
The answer depends on how deep you want the asphalt layer to be!
Use this formula and it will give you the tonnage needed. lenght x width divided by 9 = square yards next S.Y. x thickness of asphalt desired x 120 divided by 2000 = tons Depending on the liquid asphalt index will determine the price for a ton of asphalt. example: 20' x 60' divided by 9 = 133.333 9 x 2" (inches) x 120 divided by 2000 = 15.999 tons I-D 2 Top for base use 115 instead of 120 in the formula.
Asphalt installation is usually bid by the square yard, the installer will buy asphalt by the ton, and it will be delivered in a truck measured in cubic yards. Therefore, a volume/weight/area ratio is required. In short, an estimator will typically assume that one square yard of compacted asphalt laid one inch deep will weigh approximately 111 pounds.
just multiply with 1.5471 factor to get in terms of tons 184x1.5474 =286.213tons srini can you please provide details of how 1.5474 figure came? The correct answere is 393.6 tonnes
As a rule of thumb - 1 cubic yard of asphalt weighs 4000 lbs (2 tons) +-
Formula: tons x 0.8928571 = long tons
