Plan your concrete footing
What to measure
- Enter the full diameter, not the radius, of a circular form or excavation.
- Use the actual concrete depth. Save each footing separately or combine identical quantities without counting overlapping slab volume twice.
Worked example: 2 ft diameter × 36 in deep
π × (2 ÷ 2)² × (36 ÷ 12) ÷ 27 = 0.3491 yd³ before allowance.
10% waste · 0% shrinkage
- Neat volume
- 0.3491 yd³
- Volume with allowances
- 0.384 yd³
Illustrative dimensions and allowances. Use your project specification and supplier’s product data. Quantities shown are before supplier rounding.

Before booking the order
Confirm total concrete across all supports and whether they can be poured together. Check whole-bag yield or the minimum delivered order.
