Volume Calculations

Volume (cubic yards) = (Length (ft) × Width (ft) × Depth (in)) ÷ 324
Weight (tons) = Volume (cubic yards) × 2 (tons per cubic yard)

Area Calculations

Rectangle: Area = Length × Width
Triangle: Area = (Base × Height) ÷ 2
Circle: Area = π × radius²
Irregular shapes: Break into basic shapes and sum

Material Quantity Formulas

Base Material = Area × Depth × Compaction Factor
Tack Coat = Area × Application Rate
Prime Coat = Area × Application Rate
