Hello all,
Does anyone know how to convert Agg Base or AC surface from cubic yard to ton? Can you be kind enough to provide the source of information? I appreciate it.

Hot mix usually weighs 2 tons/cyd or thereabout, depending on the aggregate used.

Material Compacted Tons/SY Tons/CY
Thickness
Stone Base 6" 0.33 1.98
8" 0.44
10" 0.58
12" 0.66
Blacktop 1" .055 2.25
2" .110
3" .165
4" .220
However, you can compute any of these yourself using the unit weight of the material, which can be found in any engineering ref. book or AISC manual:
tons/cy = [(lbs/cf)x(27 cf/cy)]/2000 lbs/ton
Hope this helps!
