Question from Dixie:

I need to find the cubic feet of a ditch 36 inches wide by 28 inches high, by 1561 feet long.
then I need to convert it to cubic yards then to tons of rock

Dixie,

To find the volume in cubic yards you can use our volume calculator at http://mathcentral.uregina.ca/volume_calculator The weight will depend on the type of rock you are using. Ask the dealer what the weight will be.
