Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate concrete for a round column?
Use the formula: Volume = pi x radius^2 x height. Convert all measurements to feet first, then divide cubic feet by 27 to get cubic yards.
What size sonotube do I need for a deck post?
Most residential deck posts use 8-inch or 10-inch sonotubes. Check local building codes for minimum footing size requirements based on your deck load.
