Length x width x depth(thickness) divided by 27. (measurements in feet.) Most concrete is poured 4 inches thick which is .33 feet, so you can use .33 for the depth(thickness). Here's how it works: You are going to pour a 40 foot driveway that is 10 foot wide and it's going to be a standard 4 inches thick. 40 x 10 x .33 divided by 27 (27 cubic feet in a yard of concrete.) The answer is 4.95 cubic yards. I would order 5 yards and it's going to be close. Always order just a little extra. Also, In my area, a full truck load is 9 cubic yards. They used to haul 10, but DOT has reduced weight to 9 yards per truck.
