Isosceles Trapezoid Concrete Volume Calculator - Metric
This metric calculator estimates the volume of concrete needed to fill an isosceles trapezoid-shaped slab using metric units. It also calculates the area and perimeter of the trapezoid.
Calculator Inputs:
- Length 1 (m): Top base of the trapezoid.
- Length 2 (m): Bottom base of the trapezoid.
- Height (m): Vertical distance between the two bases.
- Depth (mm): Thickness or depth of the concrete pour.
Isosceles Trapezoid Concrete Volume Calculator - Metric
Calculator
- enter the length of length one in metres
- the length of length two in metres
- the height of the Isosceles Trapezoid in metres
- the slab thickness (depth) in millimetres
Results
- the area of the slab in square metres
- the perimeter of the slab in lineal metres for forming material
- the amount of concrete needed in cubic metres
- concrete needed in cubic yards
- required concrete in cubic feet
Formulas Used
- Area of Trapezoid:
\( A = \frac{(L_1 + L_2)}{2} \times H \)
- Depth Conversion:
\( D = \frac{\text{Depth in mm}}{1000} \)
- Concrete Volume:
\( V = A \times D \)
- Slant Side:
\( S = \sqrt{\left(\frac{L_1 - L_2}{2}\right)^2 + H^2} \)
- Perimeter:
\( P = L_1 + L_2 + 2S \)
- Volume Conversions:
\( V_{\text{ft}^3} = \frac{V}{0.0283168}, \quad V_{\text{yd}^3} = \frac{V_{\text{ft}^3}}{27} \)
This calculator is an efficient tool for estimating the concrete volume for trapezoid slabs in construction projects.
When Ordering Concrete
This concrete calculator will help you in estimating the amount of concrete needed for your project. The amount given as needed does not include any waste. Depending on your job, we recommend adding anywhere from an extra 4% to 10% to your concrete required calculation to make sure you have enough concrete to finish the job. Ask when ordering the concrete. They will be able to give you a good idea of what is needed.
