Comment ça marche

  1. 1

    Convert thickness from inches to feet by dividing by 12.

  2. 2

    Multiply length, width, and thickness in feet to get cubic feet.

  3. 3

    Divide cubic feet by 27 to convert to cubic yards.

  4. 4

    Round the result to two decimal places.

round((length * width * (thickness / 12)) / 27 * 100) / 100

Questions fréquentes

How do I account for waste or overage?

Add 5-10% to the calculated yardage to cover spillage, uneven subgrade, or slight over-excavation.

Can I use this for round or irregular shapes?

No, this calculator is for rectangular slabs. For other shapes, break them into rectangles or use a different method.

What if my thickness is in inches but I want feet?

The calculator handles the conversion automatically. Just enter the thickness in inches.

Formules

Les mathématiques derrière cette calculatrice, écrites pour que vous puissiez vérifier le résultat.

Volume of a rectangular slab

V = L × W × T

Multiply length, width, and thickness (all in feet) to get volume in cubic feet.

Example:

Input: L=10 ft, W=10 ft, T=4 in (0.333 ft)

Calculation: 10 × 10 × 0.333 = 33.3 cu ft

Result: 33.3 cu ft = 1.23 cu yd

Cas d'utilisation réels

Où ce calcul apparaît dans la vie quotidienne.

Patio or walkway

Plan concrete for a new patio or walkway by entering the dimensions.

Example: 10 ft × 12 ft × 4 in

Footings or foundations

Estimate concrete for footings or foundation slabs.

Example: 20 ft × 20 ft × 8 in

Driveway or garage floor

Calculate the concrete needed for a driveway or garage floor.

Example: 24 ft × 24 ft × 6 in

Conseils et erreurs courantes

Tips

  • Always order a little extra concrete (5-10%) to avoid running short.
  • Check with your supplier for minimum order quantities.
  • Use a laser level to ensure the subgrade is even before pouring.
  • Consider using rebar or wire mesh for added strength.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Forgetting to convert thickness from inches to feet.
  • Not accounting for waste or over-excavation.
  • Mixing up cubic feet and cubic yards (1 cu yd = 27 cu ft).

Hypothèses et limites

  • Use the stated inputs and units.
  • Results are estimates for planning and education.
  • Check measurements and source data before making an important decision.
