How to calculate footing concrete
This calculator finds concrete volume for a footing from its length, width, and depth, converting to cubic yards for ordering.
How the calculation works
Volume (cubic yards) = (Length × Width × Depth) ÷ 27.
Example
A footing 60 ft long, 1.5 ft wide, 1 ft deep: Volume = (60 × 1.5 × 1) ÷ 27 ≈ 3.33 cubic yards.
Frequently asked questions
How is Result calculated?
Result = [Total length] × [Width] × [Depth] ÷ 27.

Pro Tips for Footing Concrete
- Confirm footing width and depth against your structural plans or local code before finalizing, since these dimensions are often specified precisely.
- Add a waste allowance (5-10%) for uneven trench excavation and minor form leakage.
Common Footing Concrete Mistakes to Avoid
- Using trench width instead of the specified footing width, if they differ, which would misstate the concrete volume needed.
