🏗️ Cut & Fill – Grid Method earthwork volume estimation

Enter existing and proposed elevations at grid intersections. Volume is calculated per cell (average depth × cell area). Results in cubic yards.

📏 Grid rows (Y)

📐 Grid columns (X)

📦 Cell spacing (ft)

Fill volume: -- yd³

Cut volume: -- yd³

Net volume: -- yd³

📐 Volume per cell = (cell area) × (average of four corner cut/fill depths). Cut = existing > proposed (positive), Fill = proposed > existing (negative). Net = cut - fill. Results rounded to nearest cubic yard.
