Concrete Steps Calculator
Calculate materials and cost for building concrete steps with our comprehensive calculator. Estimate concrete, formwork, and labor expenses for your project.
Step 1: Step Dimensions
Standard Step Dimensions
Standard step rise is typically 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) and run is 10-12 inches (25-30 cm). These dimensions ensure comfortable and safe stairs.
Step 2: Materials & Cost
Concrete Volume Calculation
The calculator estimates concrete volume based on step dimensions and thickness. Additional 10% is added for waste and spillage to ensure you order enough material.

Additional Materials
Remember to include reinforcing materials (rebar or wire mesh), finishing tools, and safety equipment. Allow for 10% extra concrete for waste and spillage.
Cost Breakdown
Volume Calculation Formula
Volume = (Step Count × Rise × Run × Width × Thickness) × Conversion Factor
For each step: Volume = Rise × Run × Width × Thickness. Total volume = Sum of all steps + 10% waste allowance. Convert to cubic yards by dividing by 46,656 for inches or 1,000,000 for centimeters.
