Как это работает
- 1
Measure the horizontal length, width, and rise of the ramp in feet.
- 2
Convert the slab thickness from inches to feet by dividing by 12.
- 3
Calculate the flat slab volume: length × width × thickness (in feet).
- 4
Add the triangular wedge volume: 0.5 × length × width × rise.
(ramp_length * ramp_width * (thickness / 12)) + (0.5 * ramp_length * ramp_width * rise)Часто задаваемые вопросы
Does this calculator include the slope of the ramp surface?
It approximates the ramp as a flat slab plus a triangular wedge, which is accurate for typical ramps. The slight extra length from the slope is negligible for most projects.
How do I convert cubic feet to cubic yards?
Divide the cubic feet by 27, since 1 cubic yard equals 27 cubic feet. The calculator provides this as a secondary result.
Should I order extra concrete?
Yes, it's common to order 5-10% extra to account for waste, spillage, and uneven subgrade.

Математика, лежащая в основе этого калькулятора, изложена так, чтобы вы могли проверить результат.
Total volume
The ramp is modeled as a rectangular slab (L×W×T) plus a triangular prism (0.5×L×W×H) that forms the rise.
Example:
Input: L=10 ft, W=4 ft, T=4 in (0.333 ft), H=1 ft
Calculation: 10×4×0.333 + 0.5×10×4×1 = 13.33 + 20 = 33.33 cu ft
Result: ≈ 33.33 cu ft

Советы и частые ошибки
Tips
- Measure the horizontal length, not the sloped surface length.
- Add 5-10% extra concrete for waste and uneven ground.
- Use a thicker slab for heavy vehicle traffic.
- Check local building codes for ramp slope requirements.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using the sloped length instead of the horizontal length.
- Forgetting to convert thickness from inches to feet.
- Not accounting for the triangular wedge volume.
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.
