The waxing crescent moon is defined to occur when the Moon is nearly, but not precisely, on a line with the Earth and Sun. This means that part but less than one-half of the Moon is illuminated by direct sunlight, creating a crescent moon.
NAPA estimates an average asphalt density of 145 pounds per cubic foot, or 3,915 pounds per cubic yard. For example, if your calculated volume is 25 cubic yards, multiplying 25 by 3,915 will give you an asphalt weight per cubic yard of 97,875 pounds, or about 49 tons.1  Tape measure.. Convert cubic feet to cubic yards. Because there are 27 cubic feet per cubic yard, you will divide your total cubic feet by 27. This gives you the volume of asphalt you will need.
Asphalt is a mixture of aggregates, binder and filler, used for constructing and maintaining all kind of roads, parking areas but also play-and sport areas. Aggregates used for asphalt mixtures could be crushed rock, sand, gravel or slags. In order to bind the aggregates into a cohesive mixture a binder is used.sphalt can be produced in a fixed plant or even in a mobile mixing plant. It is possible to produce up to 800 tons per hour. The average production temperature of hot mix asphalt is between 150 and 190Â°C, which depends however on the mixture produced (see below).
