How many cubic yards will my dump truck hold it is 16x5.5x8
Length x width x depth/27=cubic yards Tri axel dump truck holds around 16 to 17 cubic yards of earth material.
14 cubic yards
At U-Haul, the smallest truck that will hold 40 cubic yards (1,080 cubic feet) is a 24-foot truck. You will also need to check the weight capacity.
Neither a 14-foot truck nor a 17-foot truck is large enough to hold 40 cubic yards.
Depends on the size of the dump truck bed, however if you have a 20 cubic yard bed on the dump truck and you fill it up, you'll have 50 loads. 1000 divided by 20 equals 50. If your dump bed was 30 cubic yards, like mine is, there would be 33.3333 loads. This also depends on the weight of the material, as the more dense the material the more it will weigh and the less you can legally haul.
I would like to see 20 cubic yards on a tandem. I would hate to pay that overload ticket.
15 - 25, depending on the bed dimensions, weight of the material being hauled, etc.
The average tandem axle truck can carry about 12 cubic yards of soil. Generally, a tandem axle truck has three axles.
Roughly 10 cubic yards (or 270 cubic feet).
Truck G can fit 20 boxes that measure 1 cubic yard each. Therefore, it has a total capacity of 20 cubic yards. Truck H is twice as large as Truck G, so its capacity is 2 times 20 cubic yards, or 40 cubic yards. To determine the number of boxes that can fit into Truck H, we need to know the volume of each box in cubic yards. If we assume that all boxes have the same volume as the ones that fit into Truck G (1 cubic yard each), then Truck H can fit 40 boxes. So, the measurement that can be used to determine the amount of boxes that can fit into Truck H is its total capacity in cubic yards.
One Bank Cubic Yard (BCY) equals 27 cubic feet (3'x3'x3') of earth in situ. When excavated and loaded loosely into a truck, the original one BCY of material expands to approximately 1.25 Cubic Yards (CY). The conversion from BCY to CY is required to estimate the correct quantity and costs of materials to be handled or transported after excavation.
