By multiplying the volume by the substance's density in tonnes per unit volume.

For this, you can work out the volume of the cylinder of sand you need to fill. But you'll also need to know the density of the sand to convert this volume into weight.
To convert cubic meters of asphalt to tons, you need to know the density of the asphalt, which typically ranges from about 2,200 to 2,400 kg/m³. Multiply the volume in cubic meters by the density to get the mass in kilograms, then divide by 1,000 to convert to tons. For example, if the density is 2,300 kg/m³, then 1 cubic meter of asphalt would equal approximately 2.3 tons.
You cannot. Cubic feet per second is a flow rate measured in terms of volume, while tons per hour is a measure of flow rate in terms of mass. Volume and mass are two different measures and according to basic dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid.
3096 sq yds by 9 in thick is a volume of 774 sq yards.To convert that to a weight in tons, multiple it by the density of the substance in tons per square yard.
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.
