Concrete Calculator

Estimate the concrete volume required for a slab or other rectangular pour, with an optional extra allowance.

Adds extra material to the calculated volume.

How it works

The calculator multiplies project area by concrete thickness and then applies the selected extra allowance.

volume = area × thickness × (1 + extra %)

Worked example

A 10 ft × 10 ft slab that is 4 in thick requires about 1.23 yd³ before adding extra material.

Assumptions

  • Dimensions describe a rectangular volume.

Limitations

  • This estimates volume only; ready-mix ordering minimums and site losses can increase the quantity ordered.
