What is a Driveway Gravel Calculator?

A Driveway Gravel Calculator is a tool used to estimate the quantity of gravel required for covering or resurfacing a driveway. It takes into account factors like the dimensions of the driveway, desired gravel depth, and the estimated coverage area per ton of gravel.

Why Use a Driveway Gravel Calculator?

• Cost Estimation: Helps you budget for your driveway project by determining the quantity of gravel needed.
• Material Efficiency: Prevents over-ordering or under-ordering gravel, saving time and money.

How to Use a Driveway Gravel Calculator:

1. Input the length of your driveway in feet.
2. Input the width of your driveway in feet.
3. Select the desired gravel depth (in inches).
4. Enter the estimated coverage area per ton of gravel (in square feet per ton).
5. Click the "Calculate" button.
6. The calculator will provide the estimated amount of gravel required in tons.

Example Calculation:

Suppose you have a driveway that is 50 feet long and 10 feet wide, and you want to resurface it with a 2-inch layer of gravel. You estimate that each ton of gravel covers 100 square feet.

Using these values in the provided HTML code:

• The estimated amount of gravel needed is approximately 0.03 tons.

This calculation ensures that you have the right quantity of gravel to cover your driveway while considering the desired depth and coverage area per ton.
