Concrete Info
What is Concrete made of?

Concrete in general can be used in many different applications.
Interior and exterior floors, sidewalks, curbs, footings, poured basement
walls and driveways are just a few examples.
How much Concrete do I need?
The equation above will give the approximate
cubic yards of concrete needed for a particular job. If easier to calculate,
the 'Width x Length' portion of the equation can be replaced by a total surface area in
square feet.
Note that the calculation will only be accurate when the
thickness used in the equation is consistent throughout the job. If the
grade varies, the calculated volume can be either higher or lower than the
actual volume.
