yd³
- Calculated
- 3.70 yd³
- With 10% waste
- 4.07 yd³
- Cubic feet
- 100.0 ft³
- Cubic meters
- 2.83 m³
- Practical equivalent
- ≈ 17 wheelbarrows (6 cu ft each)
Assumptions
1 yd³ = 27 ft³ = 0.7646 m³ · 1 m = 3.28084 ft · wheelbarrow ≈ 6 ft³ · waste is applied to the calculated volume.
Formule
yd³ = area × depth ÷ 27 (ft basis); circular area = π × (diameter ÷ 2)². 1 yd = 3 ft; 1 m = 3.28084 ft; 1 yd³ = 0.7646 m³.
Over deze rekenhulp

Veelgestelde vragen
How many cubic feet are in a cubic yard?
27. One cubic yard is 3 ft × 3 ft × 3 ft.
How much waste should I add?
5–10% is typical for fill material to cover spillage, settling and uneven ground.
How do I calculate a circular area?
Area = π × (diameter ÷ 2)². Multiply by depth and divide by 27 for cubic yards.
