Type in inches and feet of your project and calculate the estimated amount of granite stone in cubic yards cubic feet and tons that your need for your project.
Limestone granite cubic foot density.
The densities of rocks and minerals are normally expressed as specific gravity which is the density of the rock relative to the density of water.
Limestone averages 175 pounds per cubic foot.
Select the shape or profile of the material for weight calculation.
Traprock limestone granite sand gravel sandstone other product.
Granite 168 lb ft.
This isn t as complex as you may think because water s density is 1 gram per cubic centimeter or 1 g cm 3.
Density is in pounds per cubic feet and volume is given in cubic yards.
6 chopped stone will cover 70 75 linear feet per ton 8 chopped stone will cover 45 50 linear feet per ton.
Material description loose bulk density ft.
Density of limestone is equal to 2 711 kg m.
Note that in the above two examples the units of each measurement are not the same e g.
Washed limestone 1 20 tons 2 400 lb per cubic yard limestone base 1 35 tons 2 700 lb per cubic yard.
If you can t determine your rock type you can use an estimate of 162 pounds per cubic foot which is halfway between the two most prevalent rocks.
Modify the default number and select proper unit in density unit selection box for weight calculation you can also select custom in material selection box to start a custom material weight calculation.

For less common materials find the pound per cubic foot at reade advanced materials referenced below.
An estimated density factor should then appear in the above density field.

Therefore these numbers translate directly to g cm 3 or tonnes per cubic meter t m 3.
If you are using a different material and know its density you can enter this under the custom option.
At 25 2 c 77 36 f or 298 35k at standard atmospheric pressure in imperial or us customary measurement system the density is equal to 169 2 pound per cubic foot lb ft or 1 567 ounce per cubic inch oz inch.
