You can do it in the following way:
- Determine the length and width of the area you want to cover with soil.
- Calculate the area, multiplying the length by width.
- Establish the depth - thickness of the topsoil layer.
- Multiply the area and dirt layer thickness to obtain its volume: 56 * 0.5 = 28 yd² .
1 tonne of packed topsoil measures roughly 24.7 cubic feet- that's just under 3 feet along each plane- much heavier than it looks!
Loose Topsoil
As a general rule, a tonne of a standard topsoil equals approximately 0.67m3. Divide the cubic metres required by 0.67 to give you the tonnage.One cubic meter of soil weighs between 1.2 and 1.7 metric tonnes, or between 1,200 and 1,700 kilograms. These metric figures convert to between 2,645 and 3,747 pounds, or between 1.3 tons and 2.75 tons, per cubic meter. Loose topsoil is lighter, and compacted topsoil is heavier.
1 ton (40 cubic feet) = 1.133 cubic metres.
In terms of calorific value it takes 5.6 'builder's tote bags' (measuring 82cm x 82cm x 82cm) or 4.2 full cubic metre bags, of mixed hard/softwood (dried down to 20% moisture content) to equal one pallet (960kg) of our wood briquettes.
For practical purposes the displacement ton (DT) is a unit of volume, 35 cubic feet (0.9911 m3), the approximate volume occupied by one ton of seawater (the actual volume varies with salinity and temperature). It is slightly less than the 224 imperial gallons (1.018 m3) of the water ton (based on distilled water).
The answer is: The change of 1 t ( tonne (Metric) ) weight unit of beach sand measure equals = to volume 0.65 m3 ( cubic meter ) as the equivalent measure within the same beach sand substance type.

A 100-ton vessel can be 65 feet or more depending on its construction and commercial uses.
Although GRT (gross register tonnage), GT (gross tonnage), NRT (net register tonnage) and NT (net tonnage) are called tonnages, none of them measure weight. They are all terms that refer to a ship's internal volume, measured in tuns. The volume of a tun is 100 cubic feet, or 2.83 cubic metres.
Deadweight tonnage can be figured by taking the weight of a vessel which is not loaded with cargo and subtracting that figure from the weight of the vessel loaded to point where it is immersed to the maximum safe depth. This depth is noted with a marking on the ship's hull, the Plimsoll line.
A 50-ton vessel can be 50-70 feet depending on the type vessel and material it is built with. A 100-ton vessel can be 65 feet or more depending on its construction and commercial uses.
Deadweight tonnage (also known as deadweight; abbreviated to DWT, D.W.T., d.w.t., or dwt) or tons deadweight (DWT) is a measure of how much weight a ship can carry, not its weight, empty or in any degree of load. DWT is the sum of the weights of cargo, fuel, fresh water, ballast water, provisions, passengers, and crew.
Your average cruise ship can weigh around 20,000 to 60,000 tons, while a modern vessel has a 100,000 GT weight average. There are around 55 large cruise ships today that weighs 1000,00 tons.
Gross tonnage is a volumetric measurement of the enclosed space in a ship. It has NOTHING to do with weight. The unit used is the gross TON. Deadweight tonnage is the WEIGHT in metric TONNES (1,000 kg) of cargo, fuel and stores that will put the ship down to its loadline marks.
There are other units for measuring volume; cubic inches, cubic feet, cubic yards are all units used for measuring volume. Milliliters, liters, gallons are also used especially when measuring liquids. We write cubic sizes using a small 3 next to the unit.
The volume of a cylinder is given by the formula V = πr2h, and π is about the equivalent of 22/7 or 3.14. As a general rule of thumb, volume is area of the base times the height of the object.
Volume of a cube = side times side times side. Since each side of a square is the same, it can simply be the length of one side cubed. If a square has one side of 4 inches, the volume would be 4 inches times 4 inches times 4 inches, or 64 cubic inches.
As with a circle, you need π (pi) to calculate the volume of a sphere. The formula is 4/3 × π × radius3. The circumference of a circle is calculated as 2 x π x radius. To calculate the radius from the circumference you: Divide the circumference by (2 x π).
To find the volume of a box, simply multiply length, width, and height - and you're good to go! For example, if a box is 5x7x2 cm, then the volume of a box is 70 cubic centimeters.
