Equilateral Triangle Concrete Volume

An equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal in length, and all three internal angles are 60° each.

Equilateral Triangle

The Equilateral Triangle Concrete Volume Calculator is designed to help calculate essential metrics for a concrete slab shaped like an equilateral triangle. By entering the side length and depth, you can obtain the slab's area, perimeter, and concrete volume in cubic feet, cubic yards, and cubic metres, aiding in accurate material estimation and budgeting.

Calculator

  1. enter the length of one side of the triangle-shaped slab in feet
  2. the slab thickness (depth) in inches

Results

  1. the area of the slab in square feet
  2. the perimeter of the slab in lineal feet for forming material
  3. the amount of concrete needed in cubic feet
  4. concrete needed in cubic yards
  5. required concrete in cubic metres

Conversions

one cubic foot (ft³)= 0.037037037037037 cubic yards (yd³)
one cubic foot (ft³) = 0.028316846592 cubic metres (m³)

Formula and Example

Length (side of the triangle):5 feet 6 inches = 5.5 decimal feet
Depth: 4 inches
Calculate the Area:
The area A of an equilateral triangle can be found using the formula:
A = √3 / 4 * side²
A = √3 ÷ 4 * 5.5²
A = 0.4330127 * = 13.0986 square feet
Calculate the Perimeter:
Since all sides of an equilateral triangle are the same:
Perimeter = 3 * side
Perimeter = 3 * 5.5 = 16.5 feet
Calculate the Volume of Concrete Needed:
The volume V of concrete is the area multiplied by the depth (converted to feet):
V = A * depth in feet
Convert depth from inches to feet:
Depth in feet = 4 ÷ 12 = 0.3333 feet
Calculate the volume:
V = 13.0986 * 0.33333 = 4.3662 cubic feet
4.3662 * 0.037037037037037 = 0.1617 cubic yards
4. 3662 * 0.028316846592 = 0.1236370155899904
Results
Area: 13.1 square feet
Perimeter: 16.5 feet
Concrete Volume:
4.37 cubic feet
0.16 cubic yards
0.12 cubic metres
