Conversion derivation

Express both yd³ and ft³ in the same base unit m³ (cubic meter), then cancel the shared base unit.

1
Rewrite yd³ in the base unit
$1 y d^{3} = 0.764555 m^{3}$
2
Rewrite ft³ in the base unit
$1 f t^{3} = 0.0283168 m^{3}$
3
Forward conversion
$1 y d^{3} = \frac{0.764555 m ^{3}}{0.0283168 m ^{3}} \times 1 f t^{3} = \frac{0.764555}{0.0283168} f t^{3} = 27.0000494406 f t^{3}$
4
Reverse conversion
$1 f t^{3} = \frac{0.0283168 m ^{3}}{0.764555 m ^{3}} \times 1 y d^{3} = \frac{0.0283168}{0.764555} y d^{3} = 0.037036969217 y d^{3}$

Conversion from cubic yard to cubic foot

The conversion factor from cubic yard (yd³) to cubic foot (ft³) is derived by expressing both units in terms of the same base unit, the cubic meter (m³). By canceling the shared base unit, the relationship is established as ft³ = yd³ × 27.0000494406.

Definition

A cubic yard is a unit of volume in the imperial system, defined as the volume of a cube with sides of 1 yard. A cubic foot is similarly defined as the volume of a cube with sides of 1 foot.

Principle

The conversion works because both volume units are defined relative to the cubic meter. The factor is calculated by dividing the conversion factor for cubic yard to cubic meter (0.764555) by the conversion factor for cubic foot to cubic meter (0.0283168).

Assumptions

The conversion factors provided are exact for the relationship between the imperial units and the metric base unit.

Cautions

The result may require rounding to a specific number of decimal places depending on the application.
