Concrete Calculator
Estimate cubic yards of concrete needed for slabs, footings and columns.
Open CalculatorFree concrete, masonry, footing, brick, mortar, rebar, and material estimation tools for homeowners, DIYers, contractors, and builders.
Plan concrete pours and masonry projects from foundation to finish. Use the calculators below to estimate volume, units, reinforcement and cost, then review the project guides for formulas, measurement advice and ordering assumptions.
Start with the tool that matches your project, then use the supporting material and cost calculators to complete the takeoff.

Choose the calculator that matches the material or construction element you are estimating. Use Concrete Calculator for general pour volume, Concrete Footing or Sonotube for foundations, and the Brick, Block, Mortar and Masonry Grout tools for masonry assemblies.
Concrete commonly contains coarse aggregate and forms slabs, footings and structural masses. Mortar uses finer aggregate and bonds brick or concrete block at the joints. Masonry grout is a separate flowable material used inside reinforced CMU cells.
Reinforcement requirements depend on structural loads, soil, exposure, wall or slab design and local code. Use the Rebar Calculator only for a preliminary takeoff based on the spacing and bar sizes shown on approved plans.
Five to 10% is common for many material estimates, while irregular excavation, complex layouts or uncertain site conditions may justify 15%. Use product guidance and contractor or supplier experience for the final allowance.
Yes. Several calculators accept optional unit prices for concrete, bricks, mortar, grout or reinforcement. Delivery, labor, tax, pumping, equipment and minimum-load charges may need to be added separately.
They provide planning estimates from the measurements and assumptions entered. Actual quantities vary with site conditions, product dimensions, supplier yields, installation methods and approved design requirements, so confirm final orders before purchasing.
