Concrete - Calculating Cubic Volumes

Calculate concrete volume

Concrete and mortar are normally delivered on a cubic volume basis. Cubic volume can be calculated as

V = l w h         (1)

where

V = cubic volume (yd³, ft³, m³)

l = length (yd, ft, m)

w = width (yd, ft, m)

h = height (yd, ft, m)

• 1 ft³ = 0.02832 m³= 28.32 dm³ = 0.03704 yd³
• 1 yd³ = 0.7646 m³ = 764.6 dm³ = 27 ft³
