Cost Breakdown

Concrete Calculation Formula

Total Cost = ((Length × Height × (Thickness/12)) ÷ 27 × (1 + Waste Factor) × Material Price) + (Concrete Volume × Labor Cost)

To calculate total project cost: Calculate volume in cubic feet, convert to cubic yards (÷27), add waste factor, multiply by material cost per cubic yard, then add labor cost based on concrete volume.
