Как это работает
- 1
Convert thickness from inches to feet by dividing by 12.
- 2
Multiply length by width to get the area in square feet.
- 3
Multiply the area by the thickness in feet to get the volume in cubic feet.
- 4
Use the volume to estimate weight and number of bags.
length * width * (thickness / 12)Часто задаваемые вопросы
How do I convert cubic feet to cubic yards?
Divide the volume in cubic feet by 27, since there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard.
What is the density of concrete used for weight estimation?
We use 145 pounds per cubic foot, which is a typical density for reinforced concrete.
How many 60-lb bags of concrete mix are needed per cubic foot?
A 60-lb bag yields about 0.45 cubic feet, so divide the volume by 0.45 and round up.

Формулы
Математика, лежащая в основе этого калькулятора, изложена так, чтобы вы могли проверить результат.
Volume of a rectangular slab
Multiply length, width, and thickness (all in feet) to get the volume in cubic feet.
Example:
Input: L=20 ft, W=10 ft, T=6 in (0.5 ft)
Calculation: 20 × 10 × 0.5 = 100
Result: 100 cubic feet
Примеры из реальной жизни
Где этот расчет встречается в повседневной жизни.
Planning a concrete pour
Determine how much concrete to order for a foundation slab.
Example: A 20x10 ft slab at 6 inches thick needs 100 cu ft.
Estimating material costs
Calculate the number of bags needed to budget for a DIY project.
Example: 100 cu ft ÷ 0.45 = 223 bags (60-lb).
Checking weight limits
Estimate the weight of the concrete to ensure structural support.
Example: 100 cu ft × 145 lbs = 14,500 lbs.
Советы и частые ошибки
Tips
- Always add 5-10% extra for waste and spillage.
- For large projects, order ready-mix concrete instead of bags.
- Check local building codes for minimum thickness requirements.
- Use a laser level to ensure the form is level before pouring.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Forgetting to convert thickness from inches to feet.
- Not accounting for the volume of rebar or gravel.
- Underestimating the number of bags needed due to rounding down.
Допущения и ограничения
- Use the stated inputs and units.
- Results are estimates for planning and education.
- Check measurements and source data before making an important decision.
