This tool helps you quickly calculate how many cubic yards of soil you need for your project.
How to Use the Calculator:
To use this cubic yard soil calculator, enter the length and width of the area in feet and the depth in inches. After entering the values, click the “Calculate” button to see the results.
How the Calculator Works:
The calculator requires three parameters: length, width, and depth. Ensure that these values are positive numeric values, otherwise, the calculator will display an error message. When you click “Calculate,” the calculator converts the depth from inches to feet and then calculates the volume in cubic yards using the following formula:
- Depth in feet = Depth (inches) / 12
- Cubic Yards = (Length (feet) * Width (feet) * Depth (feet)) / 27
The result is displayed in a table showing the input parameters and the calculated total volume in cubic yards.
Calculator Limitations:
Please note this calculator assumes a perfectly rectangular area. It does not account for irregular shapes and non-uniform surfaces. Accuracy of the result depends on the precision of the input measurements provided.
