How to calculate concrete slab bags
This calculator finds how many bags of concrete are needed for a slab by dividing total slab volume by the yield per bag.
How the calculation works
Bag count = Slab volume ÷ Yield per bag.
Example
8 cubic feet of slab volume, using 80 lb bags yielding 0.6 cu ft each: 8 ÷ 0.6 ≈ 13.3, rounded up to 14 bags.
Frequently asked questions
How is Result calculated?
Result = ceil([Length] × [Width] × ([Thickness] ÷ 12) ÷ [Bag yield]).

Pro Tips for Concrete Slab Bags
- For slabs larger than a small patio or walkway, ready-mix delivery is usually more practical and cost-effective than bagged concrete.
- Always round bag count up, since partial bags aren't purchasable.
Common Concrete Slab Bags Mistakes to Avoid
- Rounding the bag count down instead of up, which would leave the project short of material.
