Olive trees grow slowly but for a very long time. Valued for its fruit, which is eaten whole or pressed into oil, the olive tree (Olea europaea) is an historically important plant, native to the Mediterranean region and climate.
1 Soil: Weighs about 2,200 pounds per cubic yard, depending on the moisture content. 2  Sand, Gravel, Stone: Can tip the scales at upwards of 3,000 pounds per cubic yard.
depends upon the rock type and how fine it is, but one reference notes that one cubic foot of gravel typically weighs about 100 pounds. So 1 ton has 2000/100 or 20 cubic feet of gravel. A cubic yard is 3x3x3 = 27 cubic feet to the cubic yard.Answer is 20/27 or 0.74 cu yard. I'd round that to 3/4 cubic yard. Other factors that affects the volume of gravel is the moisture content and the grading of the material. ton = 2,000 lbs 1 cubic yard = 2400 to 2900 lbs depending on the nature of the material. Dry random size gravel particles will pack or settle together the tightest resulti â¦ ng in the heavier weight. Dry uniform size particles have more air voids resulting in lighter weight.
