Use this tool to quickly calculate the weight of landscape rocks based on your dimensions and material type.
This calculator allows you to estimate the weight of landscape rock you need based on the length, width, depth, and density of the rock.
How to Use:
- Enter the length of the area in feet.
- Enter the width of the area in feet.
- Enter the depth of the area in inches.
- Enter the density of the rock in lbs per cubic foot.
- Click the “Calculate” button to see the estimated weight.
How It Calculates:
The calculator multiplies the length, width, and depth (converted to feet) to get the volume in cubic feet. It then multiplies the volume by the density to get the total weight in pounds.
Limitations:
This calculator assumes uniform density and does not account for potential irregularities in the terrain or rock distribution. Always order slightly more material than calculated to account for waste and variations.
