I look out over our skate park, and its buzzing since spring is arriving (Sweden, largest skate park).

37 tons is about one truckload? It will be mostly brushed away quickly when quarantine ends. Wish they did the same here, but the skate park is the least of our social distancing problems.

37/2 = 18.5 tons which around the payload limit for a standard triaxle dump truck, So 2 truckloads.

> 37 tons is about one truckload

Sand is 1.5-2 ton per cubic meter, it depends on how wet it is.

A decent truck can be loaded with about 10 cubic meters and it’s trailer a little more 10-15 cubic meters. Based off a DIY project, so someone may know better.

With sand axel weight is the limit not cubic volume.
