What is the weight in kilo's of 1 cubic meter of stone?


Question:I want a trailer load for my driveway, but dont want to overload it,

Answers:
We need to know what kind of stone to get an exact answer. Different stones have different weight and density. Density is usually given in grams/cm3 (cubic centimeters) and can usually be found easily with a quick search on the net. Then all you have to do is convert from grams/cm3 to kg/meter3 (meter cubed).

Here is a website with most common building materials and their densities already converted to kg/meter3 (cubic meters).

I think it's about one US ton. A twenty ton dump truck holds twenty cubic yards of stone (I think).
between 5000 and 2000 Kg its depends of what kind of stone are you transporting
Most of the stones for contruction purpouse are between 3 to5 gr/ml
