Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on
convert-me.com FaceBook pageThank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

I'm trying to convert cu ftto tonnage

First you'd have to find out the density of the substance you're looking for. This would be in units of mass/volume. Then take the multiply the two together, and you'll get just a mass measurement. After that, use this helpful site to convert it to whatever mass units you want.
For instance, you have 20 cubic ft of sodium hydroxide (NaOH), which has a density of .1657 lb/ft^3.
20 ft^3 * (.1657 lb/ft^3) = 3.314 lbs / 2000 lb/ton = .001657 tons NaOH.
Hope this helps
