Gravel and Sand Calculator

Enter the area and depth to estimate the volume and weight of gravel or sand you need.

Typical bulk density: gravel ~1700, sand ~1600 kg/m?.

How gravel and sand quantities are calculated

Volume is calculated by multiplying length ? width ? depth. All inputs are converted to meters for consistency.

Weight is calculated by multiplying the volume by the material density. Typical densities are ~1700 kg/m? for gravel and ~1600 kg/m? for sand.

Use custom density if your supplier provides a specific bulk density or if the material is moist or compacted.
