How many buckets equal one yard

   / How many buckets equal one yard #31  
There's a logical, simple way to determine the loader bucket volume...

1. Fill the bucket to the brim with water.

Easy! :D

Create the bucket side in almost any CAD software,,
most CAD systems will tell you the area of a shape.
Then, multiply the area by the length,,
that gives you the volume,,

NO water will be wasted,,, :cool2:


:laughing:


:thumbsup:

or,,,

Measure all the dimensions or sides of the area.
(Or, you could trace the end of the bucket on a piece of paper)
Draw the area on graph paper using the measurements you obtained. Make sure your drawing is to scale. ...
Divide the drawing into shapes. ...
Figure the area of each shape. ...
Add the areas of all the individual shapes to find the total square footage.

Then multiply by the width. :confused2:

:eek:

I'm a draftsman. I run CAD every day. Just 3D model the bucket and individual mulch pieces, set up the constraints and environment, and run an analysis! Lol

My FEL Op Manual lists capacity when the bucket is "struck" and when it's heaped.

And for those who give a dam - - one cubic yard of goose down is the EXACT SAME VOLUME as one cubic yard of lead. The difference being - weight & density.

If you dumped both, in a vacuum, which would hit the ground first? :D
