How heavy is one yard of concrete?

general earth weights about 120 pounds / cu. ft.
120 X 27 cu. ft.
= 3,240 pounds
concrete is more dense, so
my guess is about 2 tons (give or take a couple ounces).

That's impossible to answer.
A Yard is a two dimensional shape. You need to give a volume. Depends on the depth of the concrete!

you need to know the volume of concrete, L x W x H.

Do you mean a sq yard? What's the depth?
