How many cubic meters of sand for one ton?

Answer 1

Using building sand density @

110 pounds per cubic foot (1.762 tonne per cubic metre)

>

volume = mass / density

volume = 1 / 1.762

= 0.5675 cubic metres

>

Note: if you have a different value for the sand density, replace 1.762 with your figure ( in tonnes per cubic metre) , and calculate.

Answer 2

There is no sensible answer to this question. A cubic metre is a measure of volume, with dimensions [L3]. A ton is a measure of mass, with dimensions [M]. Basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions without additional information. The mass of a cubic metre of air will be considerably different from the mass of a cubic metre of lead.

Answer 3

1 cubic foot equates to about 0.0283 cubic meters.

Answer 4

That depends on the density of the stone. Limestone is about 2.7 g/cm3 which is equivalent to about 3000 lbs/m3 So that is about 1.5 tons

Answer 5

Loose dry sand is about 1.5 tonnes per cubic meter, so a tonne of sand would be about two thirds of a cubic meter.
