Volume Formula:
From: | To: |
Definition: This calculator computes the volume of a room or space in cubic meters based on its dimensions.
Purpose: It helps architects, builders, and homeowners determine the volume of spaces for ventilation, heating/cooling, or material estimation.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: The three dimensions are multiplied together to get the total volume of the space.
Details: Accurate volume calculations are essential for HVAC sizing, paint quantity estimation, acoustic treatment, and space planning.
Tips: Measure and enter the length, width, and height of your space in meters. All values must be > 0.
Q1: How do I measure irregularly shaped rooms?
A: Break the space into regular rectangular sections, calculate each separately, then sum the volumes.
Q2: Should I use internal or external dimensions?
A: For interior applications (HVAC, painting), use internal dimensions. For construction materials, use external.
Q3: How precise should my measurements be?
A: For most applications, measurements to the nearest 0.1m are sufficient.
Q4: Can I use this for outdoor spaces?
A: Yes, it works for any rectangular volume calculation including gardens, pools, or construction sites.
Q5: How do I convert to other units?
A: 1 m³ = 35.315 cubic feet. Multiply your result by this factor for cubic feet.
