What does ounce/gallon (UK) measure?

It measures density as mass in avoirdupois ounces per imperial (UK) gallon, commonly used in older British technical contexts.

Where is pound/cubic yard commonly used?

It is often used in construction and engineering to specify the mass contained in one cubic yard of material.

Why convert from ounce/gallon (UK) to pound/cubic yard?

This conversion allows incorporation of older British density data into modern U.S. construction or engineering workflows requiring bulk volumetric densities.

Browser-based and easy to use for quick density conversions.

Examples

2 ounce/gallon (UK) converts to approximately 21.0223 pound/cubic yard [lb/yd^3].
0.5 ounce/gallon (UK) converts to approximately 5.25558 pound/cubic yard [lb/yd^3].

Common Use Cases

Converting density data of fuels and lubricants from historical UK documents to SI or US customary units.
Estimating bulk weights of construction materials such as concrete or asphalt for structural calculations.
Planning transport loads for aggregates, sand, gravel, or mulch in landscaping and construction projects.
Determining bulk densities of soils and fill materials for civil engineering assessments.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure you are using standard avoirdupois ounces and imperial gallons when inputting values to avoid inaccuracies.
Consider the material state, as converting fluid-based density units to solid bulk volumetric units may require extra caution.
Be aware that temperature or pressure changes can affect density and might need adjustments beyond simple unit conversion.
Use this tool to translate legacy measurement data into units compatible with contemporary U.S. construction standards.

Limitations

The conversion is based on standard avoirdupois ounces and imperial gallons; using other definitions of ounce or gallon may cause errors.
Conversion between fluid volume-based and solid bulk volume-based density units assumes consistent material packing and conditions.
External factors like temperature and pressure are not accounted for, which can influence actual density values.
