To calculate the Asphalt Yield:
\[ \text{AY} = \frac{\text{WA}}{\text{D}} \]
Asphalt yield is a measure of the volume of compacted asphalt produced from a given weight of asphalt. It is calculated by dividing the weight of the asphalt by its density when compacted. This measure is crucial in construction and roadwork for determining how much asphalt is needed for a given area.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{AY} = \frac{2000}{145} \]
The Asphalt Yield is approximately 13.79 ft3.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{AY} = \frac{3000}{150} \]
The Asphalt Yield is approximately 20.00 ft3.
