Thank you so much this helped me out for my exam

Thanks, I didn't get it at once, so I went through the Video twice, and got a much better understanding. I appreciate your time and efforts to educate on this subject: cheers

[borislink]

This is the best explanation ever. Thank you

[chileask]

That helped a lot. I have trouble with the odd numbered measurements. Like if the depth is 7" or 14" something like that.

2D is for square area. 3D is for cubic Volume

Good lesson, so calculate concrete order per room which is in 6 metres

I really like this video! Thanks for sharing.

We poured concrete today to the lowest point in an irregular round pool. We were short by a lot. How would one calculate the yards for concrete to be poured in this case? My guess is that we would get the longest point for width, length, & depth right?

Where is the 3ft coming from, I’m lost

Im pouring a 10’x4’x3.5” slab. How many 50lb bags quickcrete do I need ? Or how many yards I need to order.TIA

[Ethereal_Fire]

Wait, are the 6' thick footing the woodboards?

[isaiahisrael]

150' long by 80' wide by 35' high. What is it's square footage?

[kimberlyrodriguez]

How many yards of concrete do I need for an 8’x8’x8” slab?

How do I estimate how many cubic yards of concrete I need for a swimming pool? I understand how to convert square feet to cubic yards but I am confused with the math behind the construction of a swimming pool. If someone could provide me with the formula. That would help me a lot.

Another way I ask my question is as follows. For example, a pool is 45 feet in length, 15 feet in width and the concrete is 0.6 inches in depth. The pool’s shallow end is 4 feet, and the deep end gradually declines to 12 feet deep. (Ignore the steps and possible ledges in the pool, i got that figured out).

Thank you to anyone that responds.

14 yards for driveway with a apron how many yards of concrete ...?? I appreciate u ...

[Giggidygiggidy]

Awesome vid, how would one calc a footing for a retaining wall where we are talking inches mainly? For example a 20ft long wall 18in wide(toe and heel) and 12in deep??

is it possible to mix/pour/order different grades of concrete if i need to pour a separate border/foundation around the whole perimeter, then the whole floor inside it, and some part of the inner floor even has to be thicker and higher grade than the rest of the floor in there? aka some parts need to take bigger loads later etc... and the outer perimeter probably gets some walls on top of it later etc...
