FAQ

How do I calculate concrete for a slab or rectangular footer?

Multiply length by width by thickness or depth. Convert slab thickness from inches to feet, then divide cubic feet by 27.

How do I calculate a cylindrical footer?

Use the circular area from the diameter, multiply it by the depth, then divide cubic feet by 27.

How much waste should I add?

Most DIY pours use 5% to 10% waste. Uneven forms, slopes, and spillage may require more.

Are the prices exact?

No. Enter your local cost per bag for a closer estimate. Bulk and delivery prices vary by supplier and region.
