🧱 Soil Fill Volume Calculator earthwork · landscaping · grading

Estimate required soil volume for rectangular, circular, or triangular areas. Includes compaction factor and weight conversion.

📐 Shape

Select area shape

📏 Fill depth (inches)

Desired thickness of soil

📦 Compaction factor (%)

Typical 10–20% for loose soil

⚖️ Soil density (lb/ft³)

Topsoil ~85, fill ~110

📋 Volume = area × depth (converted to feet). Compaction factor increases required volume: Loose volume = Compacted volume × (1 + Compaction%/100). Weight = volume × density. Always order 5–10% extra for irregularities.
