Concrete Calculator

Estimate ready-mix volume for a slab, footing, or pad including waste.

Enter all measurements in one unit system. Results are planning estimates; check product guidance before ordering.

How this estimate works

The calculator applies: length x width x depth x (1 + waste/100). Keep measurements in one unit system and round up when suppliers sell whole units.

Limitations

Footings, slopes, reinforcement, truck minimums, and site access require a supplier check.

Frequently asked question

Why add waste? Small spills, uneven excavation, and overbreak make the theoretical volume optimistic.
