What is the weight of one cubic yard of cement? If you are asking the weight of 1 cubic yard of CONCRETE it is approximately 2 tons or 4000 pounds per cubic yard when wet.
One cubic yard of broken limestone weighs about 1.3 tons. One cubic yard of pulverized limestone weighs about 1.17 tons.
A cubic yard is a measure of volume, however a yard is a measure of length.Think of a cubic yard as a box measuring 1 yard long, 1 yard wide and 1 yard deep.Volume and length are not the same, therefore one can not equal the other.
One cubic yard of river rock will weigh around 4,050 lbs. or 2.03 tons You can make this conversion as follows: The cubic foot weight of the material must first be known. If your dealing with stone such as to be laid up in a wall or used for masonry construction it is good to take a 12" x 12" x 12" cube box made of 18 gage sheet metal and put your stone in it filled to the boxes capacity and packed as tightly and firm as possible ( the more solid the more accurate) and put it on the scales. Do this three times with different stones each time and add the three weights together, then divide the sum by three to get the average weight per cubic foot. If there are many viods in between the stone in the cube box take this into consideration; it is not accually a cubic foot solid and allow for a viod factor of 5% to 8%, add this to the over all weight for an idea of what a cubic foot weighs. Once you know the cubic foot weight all you have to do to know the ton amount is to multiply the weight per CF by 27 ( 27 is the number of cubic feet in a yard) and then divide their product by 2000 ( the number of pounds in a ton ) and that will be the number of tons per cubic yard or in your case pounds per cubic yard. Example: Your River rock weight is say 150 lbs per cubic foot. Then one cubic yard weighs: 150 x 27 = 4050 lbs. So there are 4050/2000 tons in a CY of river rock or 2.03 tons. Remember that a Cubic Yard is Volume and a Ton is Weight. One ton of feathers makes more cubic feet than say for instance one ton of silver. So to make this conversion you must know two constants, the weight per CF or CY for that matter and how many cubic feet you have. In this case it is 27 cubic feet or a "yard". Awenow

The weight of 1 cubic yard of topsoil typically ranges from 1,000 to 1,300 pounds, depending on the moisture content and composition of the soil.
It depends on the density of the material. Cubic yards is a measure of volume. Pounds is a measure of weight. For example, one cubic yard of feathers will weigh fewer pounds than one cubic yard of lead.
One cubic meter (~1 cubic yard) of water is one metric 1 ton, or ~2200 lbs. Plaster is heavier, my guess is about 1.5 tons. Bagster "containers" can hold up to 3300 lbs and they limit heavy debris to one cubic yard.
