The volume of a cylinder is (pi) times (Radius)2 times (length).
pi = 3.142 (rounded)
Radius = 1/2 of the diameter.
When you've gone that far, since you're working with pipe, you'll probably
want to convert the result to common liquid units.
==> If you're working in metric measurements, your result is in cubic meters,
or cubic centimeters, or cubic millimeters.
==> If you're working in English measurements, your result is in cubic inches
or cubic feet.

The volume of the pipe is 1,154.5 cubic feet.
measure the radius of the pipe. (half the diameter - the width of the pipe) then measure the length of the pipe. then use the formula pi (3.14) x radius2 x length. the answer is the volume in the pipe
The volume of a 12 inch x 12 inch pipe is: 1,360 cubic inches
Consider the volume of the pipe as the difference in the volume of two cylinders, one containing the whole pipe and the other the empty space inside. Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder : Pi*r*r*h. Find the volume of the first cylinder with the larger radius and subtract from it that of the cylinder with the smaller radius. The height (or length) is the same for both volume calculations. The result of subtracting these is the volume occupied by the pipe.
Volume = cross-section area*length
