about 4.8 ton of sand
540 square feet
.617 Yards
The answer really requires a cubic measure - the volume - of the construction. 100 square feet can be covered to a depth of only a grain of sand or several inches (or more) of sand and, obviously, the quantity of sand required will vary accordingly.
630 cubic inches
200 cubic feet or 7.4 cubic yards
To calculate the amount of sand needed, first convert the depth from inches to feet: 2 inches is about 0.167 feet. Then, multiply the area by the depth: 452 square feet × 0.167 feet = approximately 75.5 cubic feet of sand needed.

24 ft * 24 ft * 4 in = 5.437 cubic metres.
Two thirds of a cubic yard.
To determine how much paver sand you need for your project, calculate the square footage of the area to be covered by the pavers. Then, use a paver sand calculator to determine the amount of sand needed based on the depth of sand required for your project.

270-ft x 1/2-ft = 135 cubic ft = 5.0 cubic yards
The answer will depend on how deep a layer of sand.
Four cubic yards will do it. You theoretically need only 3.7, but that assumes the area you're putting the sand in is perfectly level, flat and low-spot-free...and they never are.
