Asphalt tonnage

Tons of asphalt (HMA — hot mix asphalt) for a paving area and lift thickness. Standard 145 lb/cu-ft compacted density.

Asphalt to order
24.2 tons
Volume: 333.333 cu ft; Weight: 48,333 lbs at 145 lb/cu ft.
How it works

Volume (cu ft) = area × thickness (ft). Weight = volume × 145 lb/cu ft. Tons = weight ÷ 2000. Compacted density assumed; loose-mix yard ticket might run 110-130 lb/cu ft. Most field-paving estimates use the compacted number.
