Using the weight info provided in the link - 1 cubic yard could be about 2,780lbs. Depending on water content, density of and type of stones in the mix - 1 cubic yard could approach a weight as great as 4,000lbs.
Let's assume for easy calculations that an
average cubic yard weighs 3,000lbs. (or 3,000lbs/2,000lbs = 1.5 tons).
That means 1,361yds x 1.5tons = 2,041.5 tons.
Lighter average cubic yards as mentioned in the link? Then 2780lbs/2000lbs = 1.39tons/yd. - or -
1361yds x 1.39tons = 1891.9 tons
Heavier average cubic yards as mentioned in the link? Then 4000lbs/2000lbs = 2tons/yd - or -
1361yd x 2tons = 2722 tons.
