Concrete Calculator
Calculate the amount of concrete needed for your construction project. This calculator estimates the volume of concrete in cubic yards, accounting for a 10% waste factor.
Tips
- For most projects, order a little extra concrete (10% waste factor is included in calculation)
- 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet
- For slabs, a typical thickness is 4 inches (0.33 feet)
- Standard concrete mix is approximately 3,900 pounds per cubic yard
- For odd shapes, break the project into rectangles and calculate each separately
