Best Answer

3 inches = 1/4 foot

Volume = 82 x 1/4 = 20.5 cubic feet

If you're buying 5-cubic-foot bags, then these are your choices:

-- Buy 4 bags, and leave the job 2.5% incomplete. (Cover is only 2.93" deep, not 3".)

-- Buy 5 bags, and use only 10% of the 5th one.

-- Spread all 5 bags, and wind up with the 82 square feet covered 3.66 inches deep.

How many square feet will 1 ton of river- rock cover?

The answer depends on how deep the coverage will be. River Rock weighs 2,800 LBS. per cubic yard - That's 1.4 tons per cubic yard. One ton = 2,000 LBS. 2,000 divided by 2,800 equals roughly 0.71. So one ton of river rock is roughly 0.71 cubic yards. 0.71 cubic yards covers roughly 230 square feet 1" deep 0.71 cubic yards covers roughly 115 square feet 2" deep 0.71 cubic yards covers roughly 77 square feet 3" deep 0.71 cubic yards covers roughly 57 square feet 4" deep 0.71 cubic yards covers roughly 38 square feet 5" deep


How many tons of river rock is needed to fill fourteen cubic yards?

That depends on the exact size of the rocks, - however a good rule of thumb for river rock in general is about 1.4 -1.6 tons per cubic yard. -So 14 cubic yards would be approximately 20 tons.

What does one cubic yard of river rock weigh?

One cubic yard of river rock will weigh around 4,050 lbs. or 2.03 tons You can make this conversion as follows: The cubic foot weight of the material must first be known. If your dealing with stone such as to be laid up in a wall or used for masonry construction it is good to take a 12" x 12" x 12" cube box made of 18 gage sheet metal and put your stone in it filled to the boxes capacity and packed as tightly and firm as possible ( the more solid the more accurate) and put it on the scales. Do this three times with different stones each time and add the three weights together, then divide the sum by three to get the average weight per cubic foot. If there are many viods in between the stone in the cube box take this into consideration; it is not accually a cubic foot solid and allow for a viod factor of 5% to 8%, add this to the over all weight for an idea of what a cubic foot weighs. Once you know the cubic foot weight all you have to do to know the ton amount is to multiply the weight per CF by 27 ( 27 is the number of cubic feet in a yard) and then divide their product by 2000 ( the number of pounds in a ton ) and that will be the number of tons per cubic yard or in your case pounds per cubic yard. Example: Your River rock weight is say 150 lbs per cubic foot. Then one cubic yard weighs: 150 x 27 = 4050 lbs. So there are 4050/2000 tons in a CY of river rock or 2.03 tons. Remember that a Cubic Yard is Volume and a Ton is Weight. One ton of feathers makes more cubic feet than say for instance one ton of silver. So to make this conversion you must know two constants, the weight per CF or CY for that matter and how many cubic feet you have. In this case it is 27 cubic feet or a "yard". Awenow


Feet inches yard miles which one will you measure a river?

It depends on what you're measuring. If measuring the length of the river, then miles. If measuring the width, then probably yards (or feet). If measuring water depth, then probably feet.

How many square feet will a yard of river rock cover?

The answer depends on the depth of the layer.1 yard of river rock actually means "1 cubic yard" of river rock.A cubic yard is 3 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft = 27 cubic ftIf you want a layer that is 3 ft deep, it would cover 9 square ft (i.e. 3 ft x 3 ft = 9 sq ft)If you want a layer that is 4 inches deep, it would cover 81 square ftx^2 * (4"/12") = 27x^2 = 27 * 12/4 = 81x = sqrt (81)x = 99 ft x 9ft = 81 sf
