Gravel And Aggregate Calculator
Gravel And Aggregate: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers area (m2 or sq ft). Stub page: the tool, its formula and a worked example are not published yet.
Gravel And Aggregate Calculator is a planned calculator in the home and energy section of Super Calculator, covering home and garden.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: area (m2 or sq ft), depth (mm or in), material (label), bulk density (t/m3) and compaction factor (n).
Outputs: volume (m3 or cu yd), mass (t or tons), bags or bulk bags (n) and cost (currency).
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Mass equals area times depth times bulk density, where bulk density for loose aggregate runs roughly 1.4 to 1.7 tonnes per cubic meter depending on grading and moisture. Compacted depth requires a greater loose volume, typically about 1.25 times.
