Concrete is made of cement, sand, gravel, and water. Calculating the volume before ordering or mixing prevents expensive over-ordering or frustrating shortages. Volume is always measured in cubic feet or cubic yards.

Пошаговое руководство

  1. 1Measure length, width, and depth of the pour in feet
  2. 2Volume (cubic feet) = length × width × depth
  3. 3Cubic yards = cubic feet ÷ 27
  4. 4Add 5–10% waste factor for form overruns and spillage

Ввод
20×15 ft slab, 4 in (0.33 ft) deep
Результат
3.33 yd³ + 10% = 3.67 yd³
20×15×0.33=99 ft³÷27=3.67
Ввод
Footing: 40×1×2 ft
Результат
2.96 yd³
80 ft³÷27
