Calculate washed septic stone for a drain field trench or absorption bed. Enter trench dimensions and depth to get cubic yards, tons, and delivered cost.

Calculate how much soil to cut and fill when grading or leveling your yard — get net volume, surplus or import needed, and how many truck loads it takes.

Calculate how many rolls of perforated or socked drain pipe you need for a French drain run, plus a total material cost estimate.

Calculate the cubic yards and tons of soil a trench will produce, based on trench length, width, and depth, for utility, footing, or drain line digs.

Convert soil volume between bank, loose, and compacted states for sand, loam, clay, or gravel — know how much fill to order or how many truckloads you'll haul.

Calculate drainage slope percentage, ratio, and angle from rise and run — check whether your grade meets typical minimum drainage standards.

Estimate how many tons of clean drainage stone you need for a French drain, footing drain, or drainage bed, based on trench size and depth.

Calculate cut and fill volumes for your excavation project — swell, shrink, net material balance, and how many truck loads it takes to haul or import soil.

Figure out how many tons of clean drainage stone your French drain trench needs. Enter trench length, width and depth to get cubic yards, tons and delivered cost.
