1 metric ton = 1000 Kg It doesn't matter if it is dry sand, wet sand or anything else. A 'metric ton' is often just called a 'tonne', to distinguish it from the other two types of tons (British ton and US ton).
It depends on the density of the sand, between about 1.4 tons dry, 1.7 tons rammed, dry. Wet sand will be heavier.
Start with a conversion factor. An "old timer's" view is that a cubic foot of dry sand weighs about 125 pounds. There are 3 feet in a yard. There are 3 x 3 or 9 square feet in a square yard. There are 3 x 3 x 3 or 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard. As there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard and there are 125 pounds to a cubic foot of our dry sand, there are 27 x 125 pounds of dry sand per cubic yard, or 3,375 pounds of dry sand per cubic yard. (Yes, there are that many.) There are 2,240 pounds in an Imperial ton. There are 3,375 divided by 2,240 Imperial tons in a cubic yard of dry sand, or right at 1.5 Imperial tons of dry sand per cubic yard. To convert cubic yards of dry sand to Imperial tons, multiply the number of cubic yards of dry sand by 1.5 and your answer will appear. Every time.
The answer will depend on how thinly the sand is spread.
1 ton, but I don't know whether that's a short ton or a long ton. A cubic ton is a measurement of volume (i.e. how much space it takes up). A cubic ton of sand is how much space a ton of sand takes up. A cubic ton of timber is how much space a ton of timber takes up, and as timber is lighter than sand, a cubic ton of timber is larger than a cubic ton of sand, even though they both weigh the same. As for the volume of a cubic ton of sand, I have no idea. You could get a rough answer this way: "m" divided by "d" where m =one ton in whatever units you are using (e.g. kg) and d = density of sand (in the same units)
1 metric ton = 1000 Kg It doesn't matter if it is dry sand, wet sand or anything else. A 'metric ton' is often just called a 'tonne', to distinguish it from the other two types of tons (British ton and US ton).
To convert pricing from dry ton to wet ton, you need to adjust for the moisture content. The calculation involves dividing the cost per dry ton by the percentage of dry material in the wet ton. This will give you the equivalent cost per wet ton.
it's over 9000

without moisture
To convert pounds to dry tons, divide the weight in pounds by 2000, since there are 2000 pounds in a dry ton. For example, to convert 46660 pounds to dry tons: 46660 pounds / 2000 = 23.33 dry tons.
sand weighs 100 pounds per cubic feet 2000 pounds is one ton 2000/100 = 20 cubic feet 1 meter = 3.28 feet 1 cu meter = 3.28 x 3.28 x 3.28 = 35.31 cu ft 20 cubic feet = 20/35.31 = 0.566 cubic meters
To convert wet tons to dry tons, you need to know the moisture content of the material. The formula is: dry tons = wet tons / (1 + (moisture content / 100)). Multiply the wet tons by the reciprocal of 1 plus the moisture content divided by 100 to get the dry tons.
Dry sand has a density of 100 pounds/cubic foot 1 ton = 2000 pounds 2000 pounds / 100 pounds/cubic foot = 20 cubic foot 20 cubic foot / 27 = 0.74 cubic yard So 1 ton is about 3/4 of a cubic yard
Actually in the US is the cost of sand is about $11-13/Ton.
It will depend on type of sand ie fine,medium,coarse one cu mt per ton of sand will range between 1.4 ton to 2 ton
