To calculate the quantity of sand in cubic feet (cft) for a tractor or truck, you need to know the volume capacity of the vehicle in cubic feet and the desired depth of the sand layer. The formula is: Quantity (cft) = Volume capacity of the vehicle (cft) × Depth of sand layer (feet).
Quantity (cft) = Volume capacity of the vehicle (cft)× Depth of sand layer (feet).
For example, if a tractor or truck has a volume capacity of 200 cft and you want to spread the sand at a depth of 1 foot, the calculation would be 200 cft × 1 foot = 200 cft. Make sure to use consistent units for volume and depth in the calculation.
