How many tons asphalt to cover 8700sq.Feet inch and half



to top an existing drive way with an 1 1/2" .How many square feet to top with an 1 1/2" of asphalt

Answers:



From: Gil

Sq footage divided by 80 = Tonage for a 2" lay. Seeing how you have 1.5" of 2" (which is .75 or 3/4 of 2) take your sum and then multiply by .75 and you will get your tonage. 8700 divided by 80 then multiplied by .75 = 82 tons
