How do you determine the cubic yards in a pile of mulch when the pile measures 12 feet by 12 feet at its base?
Covert all your measurements into yards:
12 ft = 4 yds (as 1yd = 3 ft)
Calculate the area of the base of the pile of mulch; assuming a square base:
4yds x 4yds = 16 sq yds
Measure the height of your pile of mulch in yards.
If the pile of mulch is cuboid in shape, multiply this height by the area of the base (as previously calculated).
If the pile of mulch is pyramidal in shape, multiply this height by the area of the base and divide by 3.
