ConcreteNetwork.com has released a concrete calculator widget for contractors.
The concrete calculator widget allows contractors to calculate how many cubic yards and bags of concrete are needed for a slab, concrete footings and concrete columns.
The calculator widget also features other resources for contractors on special considerations and ordering concrete. Contractors can add the widget to their websites, blogs, personalized internet home screens and more for easy accessibility.
On a daily basis, contractors are faced with the need to calculate how much concrete is required for a particular project. The calculator widget provides a convenient solution for contractors to easily calculate precisely how much concrete is needed to complete the job. For concrete slabs, contractors can input information such as desired thickness, width and length of the project. For footings, dimensions include depth, width and length. Lastly, contractors can input desired diameter and height for columns. Once calculated, results quickly display how many cubic yards are needed and how many bags of concrete are needed by size.
Along with its other resources, the widget provides contractors with information on special considerations for concrete slabs and footings. And since knowing how much concrete is needed for a job is incredibly important, under this resource contractors will find other helpful tools and information about calculating just how much concrete mix is needed for a job. Lastly, contractors are guided on how to order concrete and are provided with a list of local ready mix suppliers.
