What does ton (short)/cubic yard represent?

It is a density unit that expresses mass as one short ton distributed over a cubic yard of volume, commonly used for heavy materials like aggregates.

What is a centigram per liter (cg/L)?

A unit of mass density showing one centigram of mass per liter of volume, typically used for very low concentrations in fluids.

Can this converter be used for all types of materials?

This conversion is best suited for bulk materials and low-density fluids separately; bulk densities and dilute solutions require different considerations.
