Calculation Formula

Volume (cubic yards) = (Area × Depth × 0.0037) / 27

Where:
Area = Area in square feet
Depth = Depth in inches
0.0037 = Conversion factor from cubic feet to cubic yards
27 = Number of cubic feet in a cubic yard

Understanding Crusher Run

Crusher run is a type of soil composition used for a variety of construction and landscaping purposes. It typically consists of crushed stone mixed with sand and is known for its ability to compact into a solid base. The depth of the crusher run layer will depend on the intended use, with deeper layers providing stronger support.

Example Calculation

If you need to cover an area of 500 square feet with a depth of 4 inches of crusher run, the calculation would be:

Volume = (500 sq ft × 4 inches × 0.0037) / 27 = 2.74 cubic yards
