∙ 12y agoOne cubic yard of rock will cover an area of 81 square feet at a depth of 6 inches.
To find the volume of soil needed, first convert the depth to feet (3 inches = 0.25 feet). Then, multiply the area (400 sq ft) by the depth (0.25 ft) to get the volume: 400 sq ft * 0.25 ft = 100 cubic ft. Therefore, you will need 100 cubic ft of soil to cover 400 sq ft at 3 inches deep.
To calculate the cubic square inches of topsoil, you need to measure the length, width, and depth of the area you want to fill with topsoil. Then, multiply these dimensions together to get the volume in cubic inches. For example, if your area is 12 inches long, 6 inches wide, and you want to fill it with 3 inches of topsoil, the volume would be 12 x 6 x 3 = 216 cubic inches.
"Rule of thumb, 1.5 tons equals a cubic yard. 1 ton covers approximately: 220 sq ft at 1 in depth 110 sq ft at 2 in depth 73 sq ft at 3 in depth 36 sq ft at 6 in depth 22 sq ft at 9 in depth" east haven landscape 2008.
You would need 7.2 cubic yards of gravel to cover an area that requires that volume of material. It's crucial to ensure that you acquire the right amount to prevent any shortage or surplus during your project.
The answer will depend on how thick you want the coverage to be. If you want: 1. Two Inches = 18 square yards 2. Three Inches = 12 Square yards 3. Four Inches = 9 square yards See the pattern here? If the dirt was a Cube of 3ft x 3ft x 3ft, then you divide 36" by the thickness of coverage in inches. The answer is the number of Square Yards of coverage.
To calculate the amount of soil needed, you multiply the area by the desired depth. In this case, you have 9300 square feet and want a depth of 12 inches. Convert the depth to feet (12 inches = 1 foot) and multiply: 9300 square feet x 1 foot = 9300 cubic feet of soil. So, you need 9300 cubic feet of soil to cover the area with a depth of 12 inches.
1 (cubic yard) = 46 656 cubic inchesIf the depth is 2 inches then the area it will cover is 46656/2 square inches = 23,328 square inches. Convert 23,328 square inches to square yards23 328 (square inches) = 18 square yards
To cover 144 sq ft with soil to a depth of 6 inches, you would need 72 cubic feet of soil. This can be calculated by multiplying the area (144 sq ft) by the desired depth (6/12 ft) to get the volume in cubic feet.
The answer depends on the depth to which the area is covered.
1 cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet. At a six inch depth 1 cubic foot will cover 2 square feet, so 27 cubic feet will cover 54 square feet.
However much you want. By suitably varying the thickness, you could, in theory cover the surface of the earth or even a larger area.The 'square feet' of area that it covers is 324/(depth in inches)
You would need approximately 2.5 cubic yards of gravel to cover a 12' by 15' area at a depth of 2 inches.
It depends on how thick the mulch is applied. For example, if applied at an average depth of two inches, the cubic yard of mulch will cover 162 square feet. If applied at an average depth of four inches, half that area or 81 square feet, etc.
Technically, none. A square foot is a measure of area whereas it is the volume of water that is required. To convert from area to volume it is necessary to know the depth. A twelfth of a cubic foot will cover an area of one square foot to a depth of 1 inch. A cubic foot will cover it to a depth of 1 foot, 100 cubic feet will cover it to a depth of 100 feet.
Area covered = Volume/Depth = 2.2 cubic ft/3 inches = 2.2 cft/(1/4) feet = 8.8 sq ft.
50 pounds covers 0.5 cubic feet. Since the depth is 3 inches, or 1/4 foot, you can cover 0.5/.25 = 2 square feet of area. That is not very much.
A 1 cubic foot bag will cover 12 square feet at a depth of 1" A 1.5 cubic foot bag will cover 18 square feet at a depth of 1"
