how many tons of rock are in a yard?
One cubic yard of broken limestone weighs about 1.3 tons. One cubic yard of pulverized limestone weighs about 1.17 tons.
Multiply tons by 1,529.11 to get pounds per cubic yard:* 3.3 x 1,529.11 = 5,046.063 pounds per cubic yard
as a rule of thumb, 1 cubic yard of concrete weighs about 4,000lbs or 2 short tons
1 cubic yard = 1.3 tons
