What Is an Asphalt Calculator
An asphalt calculator provides an estimate of how much hot mix asphalt you will need to complete your project, along with how much it will cost you. It collects information like the dimensions (width, length, depth) of your surface and outputs the tonnage needed, the price for materials, and the cubic area of your surface.
How To Use the Infinity Calculator Asphalt Calculator
Our asphalt tonnage calculator is very easy to use. Simply enter the length, width, and depth of the area you want to be covered in asphalt, and our calculator will estimate how much hot mix you will need! We support both imperial and metric units, so this calculator will be easy for everyone to use!
Step 1: Enter Area Information
To find the amount of asphalt you need for a project, you need to enter the requested information into our calculator. We will provide a brief description of all the requested information below:
Width: The width of the area you want to cover in asphalt in feet.
Length: The length of the area you want to cover in asphalt in feet.
Depth: The thickness of the area you want to cover in asphalt in inches.
Cost: The price of your hot mix in dollars per imperial ton.
Step 2: Analyze Data
After entering your construction area information into our calculator and pressing the "calculate" button, it will provide useful data on how much asphalt you will need to cover it.
How Do I Calculate How Much Asphalt I Need
The asphalt requirement formula is as follows:
length x width x depth x (asphalt density) = weight
For example, if you have a 5ft x 5ft x 5ft cube that you want to fill with asphalt, you would multiply 5x5x5x149.83, which results in a weight of 18728.75 pounds or 9.3 imperial tons.
