What Is This Tool?

This tool helps convert volumes measured in tun, a historic English liquid volume unit, into cubic yards, a common unit for bulk solid volumes used in construction and landscaping.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in tun that you want to convert.
  • Select 'tun' as the original unit and 'cubic yard' as the target unit.
  • Click the convert button to get the volume in cubic yards.
  • Review the converted result for your application.

Key Features

  • Converts traditional liquid volume (tun) to standard bulk solid volume (cubic yard).
  • Uses an exact conversion rate based on modern approximations of the tun.
  • Supports volume comparisons for historical and industrial applications.
  • Browser-based and easy to use with no installation required.

Examples

  • Convert 5 tun to cubic yards: results in approximately 6.238 cubic yards.
  • Convert 0.5 tun to cubic yards: results in approximately 0.624 cubic yards.

Common Use Cases

  • Translating historical wine or ale cask volumes to modern bulk volume units.
  • Recording archival brewery or distillery measurements in cubic yards.
  • Estimating material amounts for construction concrete and landscaping aggregates.
  • Calculating truck or container capacity for transporting bulk materials.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Understand that the tun has varied historically, so check your source data for precision.
  • Use conversions as approximations when integrating historical volume data.
  • Confirm the appropriateness of converting liquid volumes to bulk solid volumes for your specific use case.
  • Cross-check converted values with industry standards when used for construction or logistics.

Limitations

  • Tun volume varies historically and regionally, affecting exact conversion accuracy.
  • Cubic yard is a bulk solid volume unit, whereas tun measures liquid volume; conversion may not suit all practical scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a tun used for historically?
A tun is a traditional English unit of liquid volume mainly used for large wine or ale casks, commonly found in historical inventories and trade records.

Why convert tun to cubic yards?
Converting tun to cubic yards helps relate old liquid volume measures to modern bulk volume units commonly used in construction and material transport.

Is the conversion from tun to cubic yards always precise?
Not always, because the tun's exact volume has varied over time and regions; conversions should be used as approximate values.

Key Terminology

Tun
A traditional English liquid volume unit used for large casks, roughly equal to 252 wine gallons or about 954 litres.
Cubic yard [yd^3]
A volume unit defined by a cube with sides of one yard, equal to 27 cubic feet and commonly used in construction for bulk materials.
