To calculate total embankment cubic yards, first determine the volume of the area to be filled by measuring the length, width, and average height of the embankment. Use the formula: Volume (cubic yards) = Length (yards) × Width (yards) × Height (yards). If the embankment has varying heights, consider breaking it into sections and averaging the heights for each section before summing the volumes. Finally, convert any measurements from feet to yards if necessary, as there are 27 cubic feet in one cubic yard.

How many yards of concrete in 900 sf?
To calculate the amount of concrete needed for a 900 square foot area, you first need to determine the thickness of the concrete slab. Once you have the thickness in inches, divide it by 36 to convert to yards. Then divide the total cubic yards by the number of cubic yards in a concrete truck to determine how many truckloads you need.
How many cubic yards in 4 55 gallon drums?
There are 1.4 cubic yards in 4 55-gallon drums. Each 55-gallon drum holds approximately 0.35 cubic yards. Multiplying 0.35 by 4 gives you a total of 1.4 cubic yards.
The cubic yards for a cellar hole 36'x30'x4'-6 deep?
To calculate cubic yards, we need to first determine the average depth of the cellar hole. The average depth is (4' + 6') / 2 = 5'. Then, we can calculate the volume by multiplying the length, width, and depth: 36' x 30' x 5' = 5,400 cubic feet. Finally, to convert from cubic feet to cubic yards, divide by 27 (since 1 cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet), giving us a total of 200 cubic yards for the cellar hole.
Cubic yard to square feet?
To convert cubic yards to square feet, you need to know the depth of the area in feet. Multiply the cubic yards by 27 to get the total cubic feet, then divide by the depth in feet to get the square feet. Formula: (cubic yards * 27) / depth (in feet) = square feet.
What is the total cost of 1.2 cubic yards of soil if it sells for 24 per cubic yard?
The total cost of 1.2 cubic yards of soil is $28.80 ($24 x 1.2 = $28.80).
How do you calculate concrete volume?
Length x width x thickness or depth. Starting with inches, you will come up with total cubic inches using that formula. Divide that number by 1728 to get cubic feet. divide that quotient by 27 to get cubic yards. Concrete is usually sold by cubic yard.
How to calculate plain cement concrete quantity?
Length X width X Depth (measured in feet) that gives you the total CUBIC feet of concrete you need. BUT Concrete is delivered by the CUBIC YARD so divide your answer by 27 to convert to cubic yards....There ya go
How many baseballs fit in volume of 65 cubic yards?
To find out how many baseballs fit in 65 cubic yards, we first need to determine the volume of a standard baseball, which is approximately 0.0025 cubic feet. Since there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, 65 cubic yards equals 1,755 cubic feet. Dividing the total volume by the volume of a baseball gives approximately 702,000 baseballs that can fit in 65 cubic yards.
How many yards of gravel does it take to cover area 70'x21'x1?
To calculate the amount of gravel needed to cover an area of 70 feet by 21 feet to a depth of 1 foot, first find the volume in cubic feet: 70 x 21 x 1 = 1,470 cubic feet. Since there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, divide the total volume by 27: 1,470 ÷ 27 ≈ 54.44 cubic yards. Therefore, you will need approximately 54.44 yards of gravel.
How many cubic yards in a trailer 53'L x 8.5'W x 9'H?
The total volume of the trailer would be 53 x 8.5 x 9 = 4048.5 cubic feet. To convert this to cubic yards, divide by 27 (since 1 cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet). Therefore, the trailer has approximately 149.94 cubic yards of capacity.

How much cement is needed for sidewalk that is 4 inches thick 3 feet wide and 40 feet long the cement is sold for 76 per cubic yard?
To calculate the amount of cement needed, first convert the dimensions of the sidewalk into cubic yards. The sidewalk's volume is ( \frac{4}{12} ) feet thick × 3 feet wide × 40 feet long = 40 cubic feet. Since there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, the volume in cubic yards is ( \frac{40}{27} \approx 1.48 ) cubic yards. At $76 per cubic yard, the total cost would be approximately ( 1.48 \times 76 \approx 112.48 ).
