How the calculation works

Curb volume = run length × rectangular section width × section height.

A worked example

A 60 ft run at 6 × 8 in measures 20 ft³, or 0.7407 yd³, before allowance.

What to check before using the result

  • Gutter pans, battered profiles, channels and rolled curbs need their own cross-sectional areas.
  • This tool does not claim a highway or drainage standard.
