Conversions

Tonnage can be derived from volume.

Volume is calculated in m3 (length x width x depth).

1 m3 = 1.5t – 2.2t of crushed stone depending on the grading and degree of compaction.

2.1 tonnes of Type 1 = 1m3

1m3 of well compacted scalpings is heavier than 1m3 of 75mm clean stone, (consider the amount of air spaces!)

1 inch = 2.54cm or 0.0254m    1ft = 0.3048m

1 cubic yd = 0.7646m3            1yard = 0.9144m
