Footing Concrete Calculator

Rectangular volume = length × width × depth; round pier volume = π(d/2)²h.

Inputs and units

  • Footing shape: Choose Rectangular strip, Round pier.
  • Length / diameter: Enter your value in the format and unit shown.
  • Width (unused for round pier): Enter your value in the format and unit shown.
  • Depth: Enter your value in the format and unit shown.
  • Dimension unit: Choose Metres, Centimetres, Millimetres, Feet, Inches.
  • Number of identical footings: Enter your value in the format and unit shown.
  • Extra material (%): Enter your value in the format and unit shown.

Calculation method

Rectangular volume = length × width × depth; round pier volume = π(d/2)²h.

Worked example

The example values are: Footing shape = strip; Length / diameter = 4; Width (unused for round pier) = 0.5; Depth = 0.3; Dimension unit = m; Number of identical footings = 1; Extra material (%) = 10

  • Concrete (m³): 0.66
  • Concrete (yd³): 0.8632474087
