ton/yd³
US short ton per cubic yard
Densityexact by definition
The US short ton per cubic yard is exactly 1186.5528425155658 kilograms per cubic metre. Aggregate, riprap, topsoil and fill are sold this way, and the conversion between weight tickets and volume estimates in an earthwork bid runs through it.
Watch out: Bulk materials are quoted loose, compacted or in place, and the same gravel can differ by 25 percent between them. A tons-per-cubic-yard figure is meaningless without knowing which state it applies to.
