Total Tons Required:

To use the Product Calculator, please enter the length, width, and thickness of the job. Be sure to verify feet or inches for the thickness. Usually 4 to 6 inches is sufficient for a residential driveway where commercial or industrial lots should use 8 to 10 inches. Next, click on either Sub Base, Base, or Custom to select the density of the product. The Subbase and Base selections will fill in the density of the rock for you; the Custom selection allows you to enter a rock density in the Density field. Finally, click on the Calculate button. The calculator will estimate the number of tons of aggregate that will be required.

Please note that densities will vary somewhat, but the default values assigned for Sub Base and Base are good standard "rules of thumb" for estimating.
