When
Building a drystone wall, one ton of stone
will create around 15 cubic feet of wall
( 1' high x 1' wide x 15' long). Calculate
the total length of your wall, and then use
the following formula:
Total Cubic Feet divided by 15 = approximate
tons needed.
4" Veneer = 40-45 Sq.Ft./Ton
6" Veneer = 30-35 Sq.Ft./Ton
8" Veneer = 25 Sq.Ft./Ton
3"-6" Veneer = 35 Sq.Ft./Ton
3"-5" Veneer = 40 Sq.Ft./Ton
4"-8" Veneer = 30 Sq.Ft./Ton
All coverages are approximate. |
