Concrete Calculator

Start with project dimensions for a ready-mix or bag estimate. Switch to Bags on Hand when you already own bags and want to know how much area they can cover.

Calculation mode

Choose dimensions-to-volume for a project estimate, or bags-on-hand to work backward from an existing bag inventory.

Primary output 1.36 cu yd
Imperial uses feet and inches; metric uses meters and centimeters for thickness/diameters.
Length in feet or meters.
Slab width in feet/meters; strip-footing width in inches/centimeters.
Slab thickness or footing depth. Use inches in imperial mode or centimeters in metric mode.
Used for bag counts, bag-cost mode, and bags-on-hand coverage.
How many premix bags you already have.
Thickness for bags-on-hand coverage, in inches.

Optional named project starting point. Preset buttons above can fill the same values faster.
Pick the geometry that matches the pour.
Round-column or post-hole diameter in inches or centimeters.
Column height, post-hole depth, or tube length in feet/meters.
Tube outer diameter in inches or centimeters.
Tube inner diameter; must be smaller than the outer diameter.
Number of identical slabs, columns, holes, or footing runs.
Extra concrete added before order quantity and bag count. 10% is a common residential starting point.
Choose whether optional cost uses cubic yards of ready-mix or rounded-up premix bags.
Optional ready-mix material price for cost estimates.
Optional bag price for cost estimates.
Normal-weight concrete is commonly estimated around 150 lb per cubic foot.
