Calculate gravel volume and weight for rectangular areas.

Project inputs

Enter your project values, then press Calculate.

How this calculator works

Calculate gravel volume and weight for rectangular areas.

V = L × W × D; weight = V × density

How to use the Gravel Calculator

1. Enter project inputs

  • Length (m)
  • Width (m)
  • Depth (m)
  • Bulk density (kg/m³)
  • Compaction/waste (%)

2. Review the results

  • Volume
  • Order volume
  • Estimated weight

3. Check the calculation

The calculator uses the following core relationship:

V = L × W × D; weight = V × density

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