Concrete Calculator

Estimate concrete volume from length, width, thickness and waste allowance.

About the Concrete Calculator

This estimator converts three entered dimensions into an approximate concrete volume and adds a selected waste allowance.

How to use it

  1. Enter length, width and depth using one unit.
  2. Select that measurement unit.
  3. Set a waste percentage and calculate.

Estimation formula

Base volume equals length × width × depth. The dimensions are converted to meters before the waste percentage is added.

Example

A 5 m × 4 m area with 0.1 m thickness has 2 m³ of base volume, or 2.2 m³ after a 10% allowance.

Notes

The estimate does not account for site conditions, form variations, structural requirements, delivery constraints or building codes.
