CONVERSION CHART1 Cubic yard 1 inch deep will cover 324 Square feet1 Cubic yard 2 inch deep will cover 162 Square feet1 Cubic yard 3 inch deep will cover 108 Square feet1 Cubic yard 4 inch deep will cover 81 Square feet1 Cubic yard 5 inch deep will cover 64 Square feet1 Cubic yard 6 inch deep will cover 54 Square feet(Length in Feet)( Width in Feet)*(Depth in Feet)=cubic feetExample: Say you have an area that is 12' x 18 '. You want to cover it with 6" of material.Multiply, 12' x 18' x *.5' to get 108 cubic feet. You see, 6" is .5 feet or 1/2 a foot.Now, devide 108 cubic feet by 27 cubic feet(1 yard) to get your total yardage at 4 yards.If you want a 3" cover you use 1/4' or .25'. A four inch cover is 1/3 foot or .33', etc.OR ---- Multiply your square footage by .003 for 1" coverage.0061 for a 2" coverage .0092 for a 3" coverage and.0123 for a 4" coverage. It takes 12.3 cubic yards of top soil to cover 1,000 square feet at 4". Hope this helps. ----


How much does 3 cubic yards of topsoil with a density of 125 pounds per cubic foot equal to in weight given in tons?

1 cubic yard is 27 cubic feet, so 3 cubic yards is 81 cubic feet. At 125 lb per cubic foot, that much topsoil would weigh 10,125 lb. At 2000 lb per ton, that converts to 5.0625 tons (if we assume complete precision of all the numbers - if not, then we would be limited to 1 digit of precision because the 3 in 3 cubic yards is only precise to 1 digit. In that case we would have to round the answer off to be 5 tons)

How do you convert cubic yards of gravel to square yards of gravel?

You cannot directly convert cubic yards to square yards because they measure different things: volume vs. area. Cubic yards measure volume, while square yards measure area. To find how many square yards cover the same area as a cubic yard of gravel, you would need to know the thickness or depth of the gravel layer.

How much gravel do you need to cover 252 sq ft?

The amount of gravel needed to cover 252 square feet depends on how thick (that is, deep) you want the gravel. If you want the gravel to be 3 inches thick... Convert the measurement to the same units. We'll use feet. 3 inches = 1/4 foot Multiply the thickness times the area to get volume in cubic measure. 1/4 feet x 252 feet = 63 cubic feet Gravel in the US is usually sold by the cubic yard, which is 27 cubic feet Thus, 63/27 = 2 1/3 cubic yards 2 1/3 cubic yards of gravel will cover 252 square feet of area to a dept of 3 inches.
