5.16 yd^3 (when they say a "yard" of gravel, they mean a cubic yard).
A "yard of gravel" is a measure of volume, not a measure of area. There are 27 cubic feet (3x3x3 feet) in a yard of gravel, or one cubic yard.
486 cubic feet
The coverage area of 5 cubic feet of pea gravel will depend on the thickness at which it is spread. To determine this, you will need to know the desired depth of the pea gravel. You can calculate the square footage coverage by dividing the volume of the gravel (5 cubic feet) by the desired depth in feet.
To determine how much gravel is needed to fill an area of 10 by 5 feet, you first calculate the area by multiplying the length and width: 10 feet × 5 feet = 50 square feet. Next, decide on the desired depth of the gravel fill (for example, 3 inches or 0.25 feet). Multiply the area by the depth to find the volume in cubic feet: 50 square feet × 0.25 feet = 12.5 cubic feet of gravel required.
5.55 cubic yards of gravel
You will need about 65.185 cubic yards (83.6 tons) of gravel for this area.
I need to know how thick the layer of gravel is meant to be.
2800 feet of gravel
Knowing that 1 cubic foot is pretty much equal to 100 pounds or 0.05 ton, 1 ton of gravel is around 20 cubic feet.
To calculate the amount of gravel needed, first convert the 6-inch depth to feet, which is 0.5 feet. Then, multiply the area (1000 square feet) by the depth (0.5 feet): 1000 sq ft × 0.5 ft = 500 cubic feet. Therefore, you will need 500 cubic feet of gravel to fill the space.
The amount of gravel needed to cover 252 square feet depends on how thick (that is, deep) you want the gravel. If you want the gravel to be 3 inches thick... Convert the measurement to the same units. We'll use feet. 3 inches = 1/4 foot Multiply the thickness times the area to get volume in cubic measure. 1/4 feet x 252 feet = 63 cubic feet Gravel in the US is usually sold by the cubic yard, which is 27 cubic feet Thus, 63/27 = 2 1/3 cubic yards 2 1/3 cubic yards of gravel will cover 252 square feet of area to a dept of 3 inches.
