One cubic yard of gravel is approximately 1,515 kilograms.
To measure tons of gravel in a stockpile, you can use the formula for volume calculation by taking length x width x height. Then, you can convert the volume to weight by multiplying it by the density of gravel, typically around 1.5 tons per cubic yard. This will give you an estimated weight of gravel in the stockpile in tons.
You would need 54 bags of 0.5 cubic feet pea gravel to equal 1 cubic yard.
All depends on the product. 1 cubic yard of screened top soil equals 1 ton. Of screened gravel, 1 yard equals 2 tons. 3 to 6 inch rock, one yard is 1.5 tons. Crushed Limestone 1 yard equals 2 tons
The conversion factor for cubic yards to tons depends on the material being measured. For example, one cubic yard of gravel or sand generally weighs around 1.3 tons, while one cubic yard of concrete or asphalt weighs closer to 2.4 tons. It's important to know the specific material you are working with in order to accurately convert between cubic yards and tons.

A "yard of gravel" is a measure of volume, not a measure of area. There are 27 cubic feet (3x3x3 feet) in a yard of gravel, or one cubic yard.
It depends on the size of your gravel (the amount of air trapped between the rocks). If you have small gravel (decomposed granite) it'll weigh more - if you have larger rocks, (river rocks, etc) it'll weigh less. It usually ranges from 1.3, 1.4 to 1.8, 1.9 tons.

To calculate the number of 5-gallon buckets of gravel in a cubic yard, we need to first determine the volume of a cubic yard. A cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet. Since there are 7.48 gallons in a cubic foot, a cubic yard is equivalent to 201.96 gallons. Therefore, there are approximately 40.39 (201.96 divided by 5) 5-gallon buckets of gravel in a cubic yard.
One cubic yard of gravel is approximately 1,515 kilograms.
No, a cubic yard of gravel will have a different volume measurement compared to a cubic yard of dirt because they have different densities. Gravel is denser and heavier, so it will take up less volume than dirt in a cubic yard.
It would depend on what you are measuring. A cubic yard of mulch is lighter than a cubic yard of gravel.
To measure tons of gravel in a stockpile, you can use the formula for volume calculation by taking length x width x height. Then, you can convert the volume to weight by multiplying it by the density of gravel, typically around 1.5 tons per cubic yard. This will give you an estimated weight of gravel in the stockpile in tons.
as a rule of thumb, 1 cubic yard of concrete weighs about 4,000lbs or 2 short tons
