Asphalt Tonnage
Tons of mix and truck loads at typical 20 tons per haul.
Example
You enter
- Paved area (ft²) 5000
- Compacted depth (in) 3
- Mix density (pcf) 145
You get
- Tons 90.6
- Volume (ft³) 1250
- Truck loads (20T) 5
Details, formula, and sources
Tonnage = volume × density / 2000. Density for HMA typical 145-150 pcf; truck-load conversion for 20-ton trucks.
