Stone Chips = 2.833 lbs/sf
Tar = 22.8 sf/gal @ .4-in thick
Notes: The equipment spray bar is 12-ft wide. If your road is 18-ft wide 200-ft long, 2 passes are required.
Your calculation: 200-ft x 18-ft = 3600-sf x 2 passes = 7200-sf
7200-sf x 2.833 = 20397.6 lbs / 2000-lbs = 10.2-ton
10.2-ton x $14.45/ton (or local cost) = $147.39 for the chips
200-ft x 18-ft = 3600-sf x 2 passes = 7200-sf
7200-sf / 22.5-gal = 320-gal
320-gal x $2.10/gal (or local cost) = $672.00 for the tar
Labor and equipment are local costs and dependent on the contractor
