Best Answer

Assuming an 8 cubic foot capacity wheelbarrow, roughly 2.3 loads.

1 cubic yard of 3/4" minus gravel is approximately 1.4 tons, therefore 2/3 cy is approximately 1 ton and one load from an 8 cf wheelbarrow is a little less than 1/3 of a cy.

It depends upon the size and shape of the wheelbarrow, and whether you see yourself being able to move it when filled to the brim, or whether you're filling it halfway up. Fill it up as high as you can handle, weigh it, and do the math.

It will depend on the size of your wheelbarrow. They vary in size from about 2 to 6 cubic feet. One cubic meter contains about 35 cubic feet. In most cases you are talking anywhere from 18 down to 6 wheelbarrow loads.

Need to know type of sand?

There are a lot more types than you'd think! The white sand of tropical and subtropical settings are comprised of limestone and may have coral and shell fragments. The gypsum sand dunes of the White Sands National Monument are famous for their bright white colour.Arkose is a sandstone with lots of feldspar in it and granite rock outcrop.Some sands have chlorite, glauconite, gypsum or magnetite.Some sands come from volcanic basalts and obsidian.Many sands have iron impurities within the quartz crystals of the sand, making them appear a deep yellow colour.Some sand deposits have garnet (a type of gem) including other small gemstones.Bet you didn't know sand was so glamorous!


How many wheelbarrows of river sand in 1 cubic meter?

It depends of course a bit on the size of the wheelbarrow and on how high you want to pile up the sand. But a typical wheelbarrow might hold about 85 liters of sand. 1 cubic meter equals 1,000 liters. So you would need about 12 wheelbarrow loads to get 1 cubic meter.


Why is there no sand on so many of the world's shorelines?

Sand only occurs when a coastline has been exposed to ocean surf for a long enough period of time that the water has slowed eroded rocks into smaller and smaller particles until sand is created. Any shoreline that lacks sand is simply not old enough for this to have happened.


How many grains of sand in a 12' x 12 x 2 area. 12 feet long x 12 inches deep x 2 inches thick.?

it depends on the grades of sand and how big each pebble is that makes sand.


Why are the grains of sand on beach so small?

Not necessarily. It depends on the amount of the weathering the sand particles have undergone. Sand particles can vary in size from .0625 to 2 millimeters in diameter.
