They use linear yard to specify they are not talking about cubic yards. If they need something that is 50 linear yards it doesn't matter if is 50 X 2 or 50 X 200 so they are specifying it has to be that long.. If they just said yards there could be confusion. 50 cubic yards could be 10 X 5
CORRECTION: Yes I meant square yards not cubic yards.
