Use this free calculator to convert tarmac (asphalt) volume in cubic meters (m³) into tonnes. It uses standard asphalt density and is ideal for road, driveway, and paving projects.
Formula:
Tonnes = Volume (m³) × Density (kg/m³) ÷ 1000
Example:
If volume = 5 m³ and density = 2400 kg/m³
Tonnes = 5 × 2400 ÷ 1000 = 12 tonnes
The coverage of 1 ton of asphalt in square meters depends on the thickness and asphalt density. On average, 1 ton of asphalt covers 5–7 m² at 50 mm thickness, assuming a density of about 2400 kg/m³.
To calculate asphalt quantity in tons, measure the area and thickness, calculate volume in cubic meters, then multiply by asphalt density (kg/m³) and divide by 1000.
Asphalt density usually ranges between 2300 and 2500 kg/m³. A standard value of 2400 kg/m³ is commonly used for estimation.
An asphalt calculator uses area in square meters and layer thickness to calculate volume, then converts it into tons using asphalt density.
