Post-hole concrete: Estimate concrete volume and bag count for round post holes after subtracting the posts.
Age 5Explain it to a 5-year-oldStart with a picture
Imagine measuring a building job before shopping so you can estimate how much material the job needs. Estimate concrete volume and bag count for round post holes after subtracting the posts.
Age 15Explain it to a 15-year-oldConnect it to the formula
Estimate concrete volume and bag count for round post holes after subtracting the posts. The calculator finds the annular volume between each round hole and post, multiplies it by hole count and adds the selected extra allowance. Change one input or choice at a time and compare the result to see which part of the rule it controls.

The browser combines the entered dimensions, material assumptions and allowance using the stated estimating formula. The calculator finds the annular volume between each round hole and post, multiplies it by hole count and adds the selected extra allowance. Entries and results remain in this browser. Important results should still be checked against the records, standards, or rules that govern the real situation.
