Concrete Calculator

Calculate concrete volume, wet weight and estimated cement bags for slabs, footings and general pours.

Project inputs

Enter your project values, then press Calculate.

How this calculator works

Calculate concrete volume, wet weight and estimated cement bags for slabs, footings and general pours.

V = L × W × D; order volume = V × (1 + waste%)

How to use the Concrete Calculator

1. Enter project inputs

  • Length (m)
  • Width (m)
  • Depth (m)
  • Waste allowance (%)
  • Concrete density (kg/m³)
  • Cement bag weight (kg)

2. Review the results

  • Concrete volume
  • Volume incl. waste
  • Concrete weight
  • Cement bags

3. Check the calculation

The calculator uses the following core relationship:

V = L × W × D; order volume = V × (1 + waste%)

Estimating note: Actual material quantities can vary with site conditions, detailing, product dimensions, installation method, and waste.

Concrete Calculator FAQ
