Assuming that the "2" in the question means "2 inches" . . .
You're describing a volume of
64,800 cubic inches
37.5 cubic feet
1.39 cubic yards.
Gross rock volume (GRV) is calculated by multiplying the area of the reservoir by its average thickness. The area can be determined using geological maps or seismic data, while the thickness is obtained from well logs or seismic interpretation. The formula is: GRV = Area × Average Thickness. This volume helps in estimating the potential resources within a reservoir.

You will need about 8 trucks of lime rock.
180 * 2 = 360 * 3 = 1080

Isopach lines represent equal thickness contours of a particular rock layer or unit within a specific area. By connecting points of equal thickness, isopachs help geologists visualize and map variations in rock thickness across a region.

A geologist can use geological mapping techniques, such as measuring the dip angle and strike of the rock layers, to estimate the thickness of rock layers along the side of a road. They may also use ground-penetrating radar or seismic methods to investigate the subsurface structures and determine the thickness of rock layers.
49'x22'x3"(or.33) divid that by 27 and then multiply by 1.5 for tons of rock needed.length times width times depth divided by cubic feet then multiply by the aproximate tons per cubic yards gives you how much rock is needed.
An isopach map is created by connecting points of equal thickness on a stratigraphic unit. It is used in geology to show the variations in thickness of a particular stratigraphic layer across a region. This map can help in identifying areas of deposition, erosion, or structural changes within the subsurface geology.

The answer will depend on how fine the rock is crushed and the depth to which the area needs to be covered.
Basalt is a rock formed from rapid cooling of lava or magma. The thickness of basalt depends on how much lava is present during cooling. Basalt can be anywhere from a few centimeters thick to many tens of meters thick.
