Postcrete bags

30bags

Rounded bag count including waste.

Concrete volume

0.32m3

Estimated fill volume including waste.

Explanation

What this calculates

Hole dimensions are converted from millimetres to metres before calculating cylindrical volume.

Formula

Volume = holes x pi x radius2 x depth; bags = volume / yield per bag

Inputs are validated on screen and converted where unit options are available.

Worked Example

Example result

Ten 250 mm diameter holes at 600 mm deep need about 30 x 20 kg bags at 0.011 m3 yield.

FAQ

Calculator questions.

Should I account for the post volume?

For tighter estimates deduct the post volume, but many site orders keep the allowance for tolerance and spillage.

Does this apply to structural foundations?

No. Use engineered concrete specifications for structural work.

Next Step

Make estimates part of the job record.

Zektrx connects calculators, templates, articles, evidence, actions, pricing and free trial routes so one-off estimates can become repeatable contractor workflows.
