Thereof, how many square feet are in a cubic yard?

Step 3: Translate Cubic Feet Into Cubic Yards x 3 ft. x 3 ft—or 27 cubic feet. In other words, one cubic yard = 27 cubic feet. Since there are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, an overall volume measurement that is made in cubic feet can be translated into cubic yards simply by dividing the cubic ft.

Similarly, how do you figure cubic feet of concrete? How to calculate concrete:

1. Determine how thick you want the concrete.
2. Measure the length and width that you'd like to cover.
3. Multiply the length by the width to determine square footage.
4. Convert the thickness from inches to feet.
5. Multiply the thickness in feet by the square footage to determine cubic feet.
