How the calculation works

Concrete Bags Calculator

round up(Volume × (1 + Waste allowance / 100) ÷ Finished volume per bag)

Before you order

  • Use the coverage, yield and dimensions printed on your product. Waste allowance is adjustable; real cuts and site conditions may change the order.
  • Planning estimate only. This is not a structural design, a safety approval or a local code check.

Worked example

Volume
