Asphalt Tonnage Calculator

Area and thickness to tonnes, using the density of the actual mix you're laying.

Example inputs are editable. Use your project values. Enter 0 where no optional allowance is intended; blank fields pause the calculation.

Compacted volume
20 m³
Tonnes (net)
48 t
Order tonnes (incl. wastage)
50.4 t

These free results do not automatically save or sync to a Fieldlink job.

How it works

  • Volume = area × thickness
  • Tonnes = volume × density
  • Order = tonnes × (1 + wastage %)

Assumptions and practical notes

Density varies by mix (commonly ~2.3–2.5 t/m³ compacted) — confirm the figure with your asphalt supplier before ordering.
