Hey everyone,
Heard from a friend that slate is typically 168lbs per cubic foot. I have a 9' table to move that has 1.5" slate. My quick calculation comes back at 244 pounds for each of the three pieces. Is this correct? Numbers used. 100" x 50" and 1.5" thick. Comes back at 4.34ft3 x 168lbs = 730 / 3 = 244lbs. This seems light because everyone has been telling me they will be around 400-500lbs each. Looking for any personal experience here.
Thanks! Russ
