Concrete on Metal Deck Calculator

What is a Concrete on Metal Deck Calculator?

A concrete on metal deck calculator estimates the volume and weight of concrete needed for pouring a concrete slab over a metal deck based on parameters such as metal deck dimensions, concrete thickness, and concrete density.

Why use a Concrete on Metal Deck Calculator?

1. Material Estimation: Helps in estimating the quantity of concrete required for a specific construction project.
2. Cost Estimation: Assists in budgeting and cost estimation for concrete materials.
3. Efficiency: Ensures accurate material ordering, reducing waste and saving money.
4. Project Planning: Supports planning by providing a clear understanding of material requirements.

How to use a Concrete on Metal Deck Calculator:

1. Input the dimensions of the metal deck (length and width), concrete thickness, and concrete density into the calculator.
2. Click the "Calculate" button.
3. The calculator estimates the volume and weight of concrete needed for the specified metal deck.

Example of Calculator:

Let's say you have a metal deck with a length of 20 feet, a width of 10 feet, and you want to pour a concrete slab with a thickness of 6 inches.

The density of the concrete mix is 150 pounds per cubic foot.

1. Metal Deck Length = 20 feet
2. Metal Deck Width = 10 feet
3. Concrete Thickness = 6 inches
4. Concrete Density = 150 pounds per cubic foot

Concrete Volume: 100.00 cubic feet
Concrete Weight: 15000.00 pounds
