The area of that slab is (60 x 20) = 1,200 square feet = 1331/3 square yards.

But that doesn't tell you how much concrete you'll need in order to pour it.

What you really want to know is the cubic yards of volume required. That's

what the concrete guys are talking about when thery say "yards" of concrete.

1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet

Volume = (length) x (width) x (height) = (60 x 20 x 1/2) = 600 cubic feet = 222/9 cubic yards.

How much does 30 square foot of concrete weigh?

It is all dependant on how thick the concrete is. You take the square footage and turn that into cubed feet (where the thickness comes in) if its 1" thick you multiply the square footage by.083, if its 2" thick you multiply by.17. To come up with this number you take the thickness say 3" and divide that by 12 (12 inches in a foot), so for 3 inches you get .25. So back to the question at hand, say your 30 square feet of concrete is 6 inches thick, your equation would look like this: 30 X .5 = 15. So 15 is your cubed footage. You then multiply this number by 150 which is the weight in pounds of 1 cubic foot of concrete. The number you come up with is 2,250. That is the amount in pounds of your 30 square feet of concrete assuming it is 6 inches thick.


How many sq ft does a yard of concrete cover concrete cover?

1 cubic yard covers 324 square feet per inch of thickness, divide 324 by thickness in inches to get coverage, i.e. 4 inches thick would cover 324/4=81 square feet, 36 inches thick would cover (you guessed it) 9 square feet.
