Sand Calculator

Estimate sand volume for a specified concrete mix from project dimensions and mix proportions.

This estimates sand in a concrete mix. Moisture, bulking and batching affect purchase quantities. Example mix factors are editable assumptions.

How the calculation works

Sand volume = length × width × depth × dry factor × sand parts ÷ total mix parts, then add extra material.

Before you order

Measure your project, use consistent units and replace example assumptions with your own product or project specifications. These tools estimate quantities; they do not specify structural design or guarantee purchase quantities.
