Enter the overall length to be covered by concrete (ft) and the width to be covered by concrete (ft) into the Concrete Area Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Concrete Area. 

Concrete Area Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Concrete Area.

CA = CL * CW
  • Where CA is the Concrete Area (ft^2)
  • CL is the overall length to be covered by concrete (ft) 
  • CW is the width to be covered by concrete (ft) 

To calculate the concrete area, multiply the concrete length by the concrete width.

How to Calculate Concrete Area?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Concrete Area.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the overall length to be covered by concrete (ft).
    • The overall length to be covered by concrete (ft) is given as: 300.
  2. Next, determine the width to be covered by concrete (ft).
    • The width to be covered by concrete (ft) is provided as: 200.
  3. Finally, calculate the Concrete Area using the equation above: 

CA = CL * CW

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

CA = 300 * 200 = 60,000 (ft^2)


Example Problem #2: 

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

overall length to be covered by concrete (ft) = 500

width to be covered by concrete (ft) = 1000

Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator..

CA = CL * CW = ?
