To measure the concrete needed for a circular pad:
-- Decide how thick (deep) the pad is to be. If it's in inches, divide by 12 for thickness in feet.
-- Measure either the circumference or the diameter of the circle, in feet.
-- If you measured the circumference, then the cubic yds of concrete needed is
(0.00295) x (circumference) x (circumference, again) x (thickness) ... all in feet
-- If you measured the diameter, then the cubic yds of concrete needed is
(0.0291) x (diameter) x (diameter, again) x (thickness) ... all in feet

How many square feet are in 1 yard of concrete?
A yard of concrete is a measure of volume. A square foot is a measure of area. A cubic yard is 27 cubic feet of stuff. (3x3x3)To relate volume to area you must extend the area over a third dimension. One square foot that is one foot deep will equal one cubic foot. (1x1x1)So, a yard of concrete is 27 cubic feet or 3 feet tall 3 feet wide 3 feet deep. concrete wieghs 150lbs per cubic foot 27cubic feet times 150 pounds is 4050 pounds. This is 1 cubic yard of concrete.
How are cubic inches and inches different?
Cubic inches are a measure of volume, square inches a measure of area and inches a measure of length.
How are the circumference and area the same and difference?
They are not the same except that they relate to plane shapes. The circumference is a one-dimensional measure of the boundary of a shape while the area is the two-dimensional measure of its coverage.
How much concrete is needed for an area 8' x 4' and 3 deep?
96 cubic feet of concrete
How do you convert a square foot into a cubic foot?
You don't, square feet are a measure of area and cubic feet are a measure of volume.
How do you measure area for cubic yards for concrete footings?
Length x Width x Depth
How many cubic feet of concrete for 1700 square feet?
They do not directly convert. Cubic feet is a measure of volume while square feet is a measure of area.

360 square feet equals how many cubic feet of concrete?
To determine how many cubic feet of concrete are needed, you first need to know the depth of the concrete slab. For example, if the slab is 6 inches thick, you would multiply 360 square feet by the thickness in feet (6 inches = 0.5 feet) to get 180 cubic feet of concrete required.
What is the circumference and area for three inches?
Three inches is a measure of distance. It has neither circumference, nor area.
How do you convert cubic meter into square feet?
You cannot directly convert cubic meters to square feet because they are two different units of measurement. Cubic meters measure volume while square feet measure area. To convert cubic meters to square feet, you would first need to know the depth or height of the cubic measurement to calculate the area in square feet.
How many cubic yards of concrete equal a square foot of concrete?
There can be no equivalence. A cubic yard is a measure of volume in 3-dimensional space while a square foot is a measure of area in 2-dimensional space. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.
Are cubic feet used to measure area?
yes cubic feet are used to find area
How many square feet will a meter of concrete cover at 3 inches thick?
This question can not be answered because square feet are a measure of area and a cubic meter is a measure of volume.
How much does concrete cost per cubic yard in NY?
FOR WINTER MIX CONCRETE IN THE NYC AREA AS OF FEBRUARY 2012 THE COST FOR 3200 psi CONCRETE IS $114 PER CUBIC YARD
How are cubic inches and inches different?
Cubic inches are a measure of volume, square inches a measure of area and inches a measure of length.
Convert cubic yard to square feet area?
This is not a valid conversion. Cubic units is a measure of volume while square units is a measure of area.
