Some places sell crushed stone by the ton, while others sell it by the cubic yard (yd3) (a lot of times just called a yard).Here are the amounts in cubic yards and tons using the dimensions you posted (40ft long x 8ft wide x 4in deep)? yd3 = 40ft x 8ft x 4in x (1ft/12in) x (1yd3/27ft3) = 3.95yd3 => 4 cubic yardsFrom the table, we find crushed stone is 100 lb/ft3 and crushed granite is 103 lb/ft3so,crushed stone:tons per yd3 = 100 lb/ft3 x (27ft3/1yd3) x (1 ton / 2000 lb) = 1.35 tons (English) of crushed stone in one cubic yardcrushed granite:tons per yd3 103 lb/ft3 x (27ft3/1yd3) x (1 ton / 2000 lb) = 1.3905 tons (English) of crushed stone in one cubic yardThe difference in weight is negligible between the two materials, so using either one, you would need roughly 5.5 tons (English) of crushed stone.
well... that depends. A 'tonne' is the same thing as a ton. A ton is a weight, and a yard is distance. I guess you could spread crushed granite out and see how much space it takes up but... there's really no definite answer.
1 short ton = 142.857143 stone
A pint is a measure of volume whereas a ton is a measure of mass. You cannot convert one to the other without information about the material in question. For example, there will be many more pints in one ton of air than in a ton of mercury.

We can't answer this one without knowing the material involved. A metric ton (tonne) of Styrofoam peanuts will occupy more volume (in liters) than a metric ton of crushed rock.There are 1,000 litres of water in a metric ton.

One metric ton of plain water has a volume of about 35.32 cubic feet.

1 ton = 2000 lbs
One metric ton of feathers will have a much larger volume than a ton of steel ingots.

It is not a precious or semi-precious stone. It has some value as a building material, and is used as crushed stone for paving highways and making concrete. I pay about $25 per ton for crushed basalt for my driveway, but larger amounts sell for much less.
The word stone meets those specifications.
