How to calculate concrete

Multiply length × width × thickness or depth, using feet for all dimensions. Divide cubic feet by 27 to get cubic yards.

Cubic feet vs cubic yards

Ready-mix concrete is commonly ordered by the cubic yard, while bagged concrete lists a nominal yield. Add extra material for waste, uneven ground, and spillage.

Bagged concrete vs ready-mix

Bag yields vary by manufacturer. This estimator uses approximate 40 lb, 60 lb, and 80 lb yields and rounds bag purchases upward.
