How do you convert acre feet of storage to cubic yards?

1 acre = 43,560 square feet 1 cubic yard = (3 x 3 x 3) = 27 cubic feet 1 "acre-foot" is the volume of a slab one foot high that covers one acre of land. The volume is (43,560 x 1) = 43,560 cubic feet = (43,560 / 27) = 1613 and 1/3 cubic yards


How much a square meter of concrete?

Concrete is sold in cubic (volume) measurements not square (area) measurements.


1 square yard equals how many square feet?

Square yards or square feet and cubic feet or cubic yards do not convert. Square is a measurement of area, and cubic is a measurement of volume. One cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet, and 1 square yard equals 9 square feet. Sand, dirt, concrete, debris, etc. are measured in cubic yards. To determine how many square yards a cubic yard of something will cover, you must first determine how thick a layer will be. For instance, using a single cubic yard of concrete, a concrete slab 3 feet thick will cover an area of 9 square feet or 1 square yard, while that same cubic yard of concrete, if poured only 1 foot thick, would cover 27 square feet of area. The area covered cannot be converted directly to cubic units until the factor of depth is included in the calculation.

How do you deduct volume of steel in concrete?

If you know the dimensions of the slab, assuming that the slab is solid and in the shape of a rectangle, box, or square, you can calculate the volume with the formula: LxWxH which is length times width times height. This will give you the volume of the slab in cubic units (meters, feet, inches, whatever). Depending on the type of steel, you will have a different density ratio which can be used to calculate the weight of the slab. The density of low grade steel is something on the order of: 7850 kg/m3 so you would multiply your volume by the density ratio to get kilograms. If you know the weight of the slab and the type of steel, you can calculate the volume by dividing the weight by the density ratio. I hope this helps, perhaps you could provide more details on the type of steel and the exact property of the slab that you need (volume, weight, density.
