Every tool uses the same yields, the same densities, and the same habit of rounding a bag up. Pick the shape of the pour or the unit you need to order.

Size one hole, or lay out a fence by length and spacing. The post itself can be subtracted so you do not buy concrete for the wood.

Concrete Step Calculator

Stairs

Solid stairs are a stack of rectangles, each one a step taller than the one above it. The tool adds that stack.

A curb and gutter is a length times a cross section. The presets are starting sketches, not a city standard.

Monolithic Slab Calculator

Monolithic

Monolithic Slab Calculator

A monolithic slab is a floor and its edge beam poured together. The edge hangs below the slab, so it is not just length times width times 4 inches.
