Excavation & Earthwork calculators
Bank and loose volume, swell, hauling, trenching, backfill, and grading estimates.
Excavation Calculator
Excavation Calculator estimates bank volume, loose volume, weight, and truck loads for general rectangular excavations and haul planning.
Open calculator ↗EarthworkSoil Removal Calculator
Soil Removal Calculator estimates loose soil volume and haul loads for removing garden soil, overburden, and unsuitable material.
Open calculator ↗EarthworkEarthwork Calculator
Earthwork Calculator estimates earth cut volume, swell, tons, and hauling for early grading and sitework quantity checks.
Open calculator ↗EarthworkTrench Calculator
Trench Calculator estimates trench excavation and spoil volume for utilities, drainage, footings, and narrow linear cuts.
Open calculator ↗EarthworkCut and Fill Calculator
Cut and Fill Calculator estimates normalized bank cut, compacted fill, and loose soil movement for balancing a rectangular grading zone.
Open calculator ↗EarthworkTopsoil Strip Calculator
Topsoil Strip Calculator estimates stripped topsoil volume and stockpile haul loads for site clearing and topsoil salvage.
Open calculator ↗EarthworkFoundation Dig Calculator
Foundation Dig Calculator estimates foundation excavation spoil for basement, crawl-space, and footing cuts.
Open calculator ↗EarthworkBackfill Calculator
Backfill Calculator estimates soil or aggregate backfill for trenches, foundation overdig, utility zones, and grading voids.
Open calculator ↗EarthworkDirt Removal Calculator
Dirt Removal Calculator estimates dirt disposal volume, weight, and truck loads for landscape, demolition, pool, and renovation haul-off.
Open calculator ↗Earthwork guides
Use these Earthwork guides to understand measurements, assumptions, material specifications, and ordering decisions before applying the related calculators.
Density, Tons, and Truckloads Explained
Convert construction-material volume to weight with verified bulk density, then estimate truckloads from an actual legal and supplier payload limit.
Read guide →Excavation & EarthworkFill Dirt Volume, Tons, and Settlement
Estimate geometric fill volume and convert to tons only with a project-specific density while keeping settlement and compaction explicit.
Read guide →Excavation & EarthworkTopsoil Stripping Area, Depth, and Volume
Calculate stripped topsoil volume from measured area and specified removal depth, then plan separate stockpile, reuse, or export quantities.
Read guide →Excavation & EarthworkFoundation Excavation Volume and Haul-Off
Estimate foundation excavation, working-space excavation, reusable backfill, and haul-off volume from footing, wall, and basement geometry.
Read guide →Excavation & EarthworkTrench Excavation Volume and Spoil
Calculate trench excavation volume, loose spoil planning quantity, and haul-off needs from trench geometry while keeping safety slopes and protective systems project-specific.
Read guide →Excavation & EarthworkCut-and-Fill Volumes and Site Balance
Estimate cut and fill volumes from cross sections, compare excavation with embankment demand, and keep shrink or swell adjustments separate from geometric volume.
