Pebble Coverage Calculator

Calculate Pebble Coverage





Formula

To calculate the volume of pebbles needed:

\[ \text{Volume (ft³)} = \text{Length (ft)} \times \text{Width (ft)} \times \text{Depth (ft)} \]

To convert the volume to cubic yards:

\[ \text{Volume (cubic yards)} = \frac{\text{Volume (ft³)}}{27} \]

What is Pebble Coverage?

Pebble coverage refers to the amount of pebbles needed to cover a specific area to a certain depth. It is commonly used in landscaping and gardening projects[^1^][^2^].

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

Depth in feet = 6 / 12 = 0.5 ft

Volume = 10 × 5 × 0.5 = 25 ft³

Volume in cubic yards = 25 / 27 = 0.93 cubic yards

The volume of pebbles needed is 25 cubic feet, or 0.93 cubic yards.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

Depth in feet = 4 / 12 = 0.33 ft

Volume = 20 × 10 × 0.33 = 66 ft³

Volume in cubic yards = 66 / 27 = 2.44 cubic yards

The volume of pebbles needed is 66 cubic feet, or 2.44 cubic yards.
