How it's calculated
Area is derived from your shape inputs and converted to sq ft.
Depth is converted to feet; cubic feet = area × depth.
Cubic yards = cubic feet ÷ 27, then × (1 + waste %) × (1 + compaction %).
Estimated tons = cubic yards (with waste) × 2.
Truckloads = cubic yards (with waste) ÷ truck capacity.
Total cost = cubic yards (with waste) × price per cubic yard + delivery.
Material assumptions
- Standard sidewalk thickness: 4 inches; 6 inches at driveway crossings.
- Add wire mesh or fiber-reinforced concrete for durability.
- Isolation joints every 4–6 ft; expansion joints against buildings.
