About this calculator

What is the Concrete Calculator?

Concrete Calculator calculate concrete volume, bags needed, and cost for slabs, footings, and columns. It is part of Home of Calculators's Construction Calculators suite for building materials, measurements, cost estimates, and project planning. The calculator is designed for contractors, DIY enthusiasts, architects, but anyone can use it. No signup, no ads, no tracking. Just accurate math, computed locally in your browser using a BigNumber-precision math engine.

Formula Reference
The Formula
Volume = Length × Width × Thickness

Concrete volume is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and thickness of the slab or footing. The result is typically in cubic meters or cubic yards, which is then converted to bags of concrete needed.

Variables
LLength (m)
WWidth (m)
TThickness (m)
Worked Example
L = 5W = 3T = 0.1
Result: Volume = 1.5 m³, ~100 bags

How to use the Concrete Calculator

  1. 1

    Measure the dimensions

    Record the length, width, and thickness of the area to be filled with concrete.

  2. 2

    Calculate volume

    Multiply L × W × T to get the volume in cubic meters.

  3. 3

    Convert to bags

    Divide the volume by the yield per bag (typically 0.015 m³ for a 40kg bag).
