Metric mearues are easy to work out! I litre of water weighs 1kg, 1,000 litres weighs 1000kgs (i.e a metric ton). 1 cubic metre of water is 1,000 litres so it weighs a ton.
All other materials can be compared to this (i.e the 'relative' density or specific gravity). The relative density of soil is 1.8 so it weighs 1.8 times more than water for the same volume, therefore 1 cubic metre of soil weighs 1.8 tons. A solid lump of cork on the other has a relative density of 0.24 so it weighs 0.24 tons per cubic metre. One cubic metre of steel weighs 7 times more than the same volume of water so it weighs around 7 tons. Concrete, similar to solid rock comes in at around 2.5, so it weighs 2.5.
To answer the question - sub base has a relative density of loose, dry gravel is 1.9 so a cubic metre will weigh around 0.9 tons.
There are many places online that will give you a list of fifferent relative densities for materials of al sorts.
The weight of road base can vary depending on the specific material used. On average, crushed stone typically weighs between 1.6 to 2.2 tons per cubic meter. Therefore, 1 cubic meter of road base would generally equal between 1.6 to 2.2 tons, depending on the specific composition and density of the material used.
Square meter, cubic meter, diopter (= 1/meter). Then, of course, there are derived units that include the meter together with other units - this can be said of most SI units - such as meter/second (for speed), meter/second2 (for acceleration), newton for force (mass x acceleration), work or energy (force x distance), etc.
According to Florin Perkins Quarry in Sacramento Ca. Aggregate Base Weight is 1.92 tons per CY and their Recycled Aggregate Base is 1.89 per CY. The weight is pretty consistent. These products are checked once a year.
The SI base unit of distance is the meter (m).
A meter is a unit of measurement used to quantify length or distance. It is defined as the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI) and is equal to the distance that light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second.

No. The meter is a base unit.
The meter is the metric base unit for volume, and the cubic meter is the derived unit.
no. cubic meter is the base unit for volume. kilogram is the base unit for mass.
The cubic meter.
Mass: kilogram Length: meter Volume: cubic meter (this is not a base unit, since it is derived from the meter)
The units for volume are the units for length cubed. For example, the base unit is the meter, and the cubic meter is the basic unit of volume.
The base unit of volume is liter. (L)My honors Physics teacher told us that the base unit of Volume is cubic meter (m3)literThe liter is a unit of volume, but it is only tolerated, it is not part of SI.The basic unit of volume in SI is the metric cube (m3).1 m3 = 1 000 L
Hardcore filling is a layer of solid material that engineers use to support the foundation and base of a building or road. The units of measurement for hardcore filling are usually tons or cubic meters. A ton is equal to 2,000 pounds, and a cubic meter is the volume of a cube with sides of one meter.
