About Cubic yard (in³)
A cubic yard (yd³) is the volume of a cube with 1-yard sides (3 feet), equal to approximately 764.6 liters or 27 cubic feet. It is the standard unit for ordering concrete, topsoil, mulch, and gravel in the United States. Ready-mix concrete trucks carry 8–11 yd³ per load. A typical house driveway requires 3–5 yd³ of concrete. Landfill capacity and solid waste volume are also measured in cubic yards.
A standard concrete mixer truck carries 8–10 yd³. A garden mulch or topsoil project might require 1–5 yd³.
About US teaspoon (tsp)
The US teaspoon (tsp) is a unit of culinary volume equal to approximately 4.929 milliliters, one third of a US tablespoon. It is one of the smallest standard US customary volume units, used in cooking, baking, and medicine for small ingredient quantities. The US teaspoon differs from the metric teaspoon (exactly 5 mL) and the imperial teaspoon (about 5.92 mL). In medicine, 5 mL is the standardized dosing teaspoon.
A standard dose of liquid children's medicine is one 5 mL teaspoon. A recipe calling for 1 tsp of vanilla extract uses about 4.93 mL.

How many cubic feet are in a cubic yard?
One cubic yard equals exactly 27 cubic feet (since 1 yard = 3 feet, and 3³ = 27). It also equals approximately 764.6 liters.
Why is concrete measured in cubic yards?
The US construction industry uses cubic yards for ordering concrete as the traditional imperial bulk material unit. A standard ready-mix truck carries 8–10 cubic yards per load, priced typically at $100–$150/yd³.
How much does a cubic yard weigh?
Weight varies by material. Concrete weighs roughly 2 tonnes/yd³ (≈ 4,050 lb). Dry soil is about 1.1 tonnes/yd³. Mulch is about 0.4 tonnes/yd³. Gravel is about 1.4 tonnes/yd³.
How many cubic yards of concrete does a driveway need?
A typical two-car driveway (20 × 20 ft) at 4-inch thickness requires approximately 5 cubic yards of concrete. At 6-inch thickness, about 7.5 cubic yards.
How do I convert cubic yards to liters?
One cubic yard equals approximately 764.6 liters. Multiply yd³ by 764.6. For example, 5 yd³ = 5 × 764.6 = 3,823 liters.
US teaspoon – Frequently Asked Questions
How many milliliters is a US teaspoon?
One US teaspoon equals approximately 4.929 mL, typically rounded to 5 mL in medicine and 4.93 mL in precise culinary conversions. The metric teaspoon used in Australia and Canada is exactly 5 mL.
What is the difference between a US teaspoon and an imperial teaspoon?
A US teaspoon is about 4.93 mL; an imperial (UK) teaspoon is about 5.92 mL — approximately 20% larger. This difference can affect recipes crossing US and UK sources, particularly for spices and leavening agents.
How many teaspoons are in a tablespoon?
In the US system, 3 teaspoons equal 1 tablespoon (3 × 4.929 mL = 14.787 mL). The metric equivalent is the same ratio: 3 × 5 mL = 15 mL tablespoon.
Is a medicine teaspoon the same as a cooking teaspoon?
Not exactly. Medicine dosing uses a standardized 5 mL teaspoon, while the US cooking teaspoon is about 4.93 mL. For medication accuracy, always use a calibrated oral syringe rather than a kitchen teaspoon, which can vary from 3 to 7 mL.
