Material Calculations
*All numbers are approximations. Material changes weight based on how wet the material is. This is to serve as a rough guild on what to expect.
Topsoil
15 Cubic Yards ≈ 12 Tons
Gravel
15 Tons ≈ 12 Yards
1 Yard ≈ 1.2 tons
1 Cubic Yard = 27 Cubic Feet
Easy measurement for gravel – 1 ton per 100 sqft. This applies for 1.5″ rock and smaller. Bigger rock needs larger coverage.
Land Sizes
1/8 acre = 5,445 sqft
1/4 acre = 10,890 sqft
1/2 acre = 21,780 sqft
1 acre – 43,560 sqft
Boulder Calculations
*All numbers are approximations. Boulders change in weight, and shape as they are not man made. This is supposed to give you a rough idea of what to expect.
Boulder Weights
1′ Boulder ≈ 45 lbs
2′ Boulder ≈ 250 lbs
3′ boulder ≈ 700 lbs
4′ boulder ≈ 1,500 lbs
5′ boulder ≈ 2,500 lbs
Boulder Quantity Per Ton
1′ to 2′ boulders ≈ 25 boulders/ton
2′ to 3′ boulders ≈ 4-6 boulders/ton
3′ to 4′ boulders ≈ 1-2 boulders/ton
4′ to 5′ boulders ≈ 1 or fewer boulders/ton
