Does anyone know of a formula or a website to calculate cu yds in a mound of dirt that is 12ft tall and has 5:1 slopes all the way around the mound? Thanks for any help.
Would that not be 60' radius, not diameter ?V=(1/3) 3.1416 x r x r x h
60' diameter?
V=(1/3) x 3.1416 x 30 x 30 x 12
V=.33333 x 3.1416 x 30 x 30 x 12= 11310 cubic feet = 418 cubic yards.
I'd want to test that theory before signing a contract.
It would indeed. The pile is a natural cone, as would be formed by a conveyor unloading? hard for me to picture 120 foot diameter.Would that not be 60' radius, not diameter ?
