For larger projects, consider ordering 5-10% extra concrete to account for spillage, uneven excavation, or last-minute changes.
Concrete Calculator estimates cubic yards, concrete bag counts, waste-adjusted volume, and estimated cost from length, width, thickness, waste percentage, and price per cubic yard. It is free to use, works in a browser, and is designed for contractors, remodelers, builders, and DIY homeowners. Use this calculator when you need a fast material estimate before ordering supplies, comparing costs, or planning a construction project.

The basic workflow is to measure dimensions, convert units, calculate volume, then round up so you do not run short during installation.
QuickMaterialCalc's Concrete Calculator is a free browser-based calculator for estimating cubic yards, concrete bag counts, waste-adjusted volume, and estimated cost. Use it for planning guidance, then verify final quantities against site conditions, manufacturer specifications, and local code requirements.

It takes approximately 45 bags of 80lb concrete to make one cubic yard (27 cubic feet). An 80lb bag yields about 0.6 cubic feet.
Calculate the volume of concrete needed for your project. Multiply the length, width, and thickness (convert inches to feet first) to get cubic feet, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards.
Accurately measure the length, width, and thickness of your concrete project in feet and inches.
Convert all measurements to the same unit (feet for imperial, meters for metric).
Multiply length x width x thickness to get total volume.
Add 5-10% extra for spillage, uneven surfaces, and mistakes.
Divide cubic feet by 27 to get cubic yards, or use bag counts for small projects.
