Tons of WHAT. -That is VITAL information for an answer.
60,000 cubic feet of dry sand weighs approximately 3000 tons.
To convert 2.66 tons per cubic meter to tons per cubic feet, you first need to convert cubic meters to cubic feet. There are approximately 35.3147 cubic feet in 1 cubic meter. Once you have the conversion factor, multiply the given value (2.66 tons per cubic meter) by the conversion factor to get the equivalent value in tons per cubic feet.
To convert tons to cubic feet (cft), you need to know the density of the material in question. The formula for converting tons to cubic feet is: cubic feet = (tons / density). For example, if you have 2 tons of a material with a density of 100 pounds per cubic foot, the conversion would be: cubic feet = (2 tons / 100 lb/ft^3) = 0.02 cubic feet.
A ton is a measure of mass. A cubic foot is a measure of volume. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid. If you are not convinced, consider 40 cubic feet of air. How many tons? Next consider 40 cubic feet of lead. How many tons?
yes, it is. 40 tonnes converts to about 39 tons, or 78,000 pounds.
Tons of what? Air? Water? Iron? Wood? ......
16 tons of dry sand occupies approximately 320 cubic feet of volume.
This is a nonsense question. Tons of dirt can be converted to cubic feet, depending on moisture and dirt type, but not to sf or square feet.
The number of wheelbarrows of stone dust in 20 tons depends on the size of the wheelbarrow. A standard wheelbarrow typically holds about 6 cubic feet of material, and one ton of stone dust is approximately 1.5 cubic yards, or about 40 cubic feet. Therefore, 20 tons of stone dust is around 800 cubic feet. Dividing 800 cubic feet by 6 cubic feet per wheelbarrow gives approximately 133 wheelbarrows of stone dust.
Good question but you can't figure it out unless you know the density of the substance. Tons is a measure of mass/weight & cubic feet is a measure of volume. Density is measured in mass per unit volume.
To calculate the amount of dirt in 1 acre that is 10 feet deep, first convert the area from acres to square feet: 1 acre equals 43,560 square feet. Then, multiply the area by the depth in feet (10 feet): 43,560 sq ft × 10 ft = 435,600 cubic feet. Since there are approximately 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, this equals about 16,133 cubic yards. Finally, considering that 1 cubic yard of dirt weighs roughly 1.5 tons, the total weight would be approximately 24,200 tons.
To cover 958 square feet with 3 inches of pea gravel, you first need to convert the thickness to feet, which is 0.25 feet. The volume needed is 958 sq ft × 0.25 ft = 239.5 cubic feet. Since there are approximately 0.67 cubic yards in a cubic foot, you convert to cubic yards: 239.5 cubic feet ÷ 27 = about 8.86 cubic yards. Given that pea gravel weighs about 1.5 tons per cubic yard, you would need approximately 13.3 tons of pea gravel.
