How the Volume Calculator Works
Select a three-dimensional shape and enter its dimensions. The tool applies the appropriate geometric formula and displays volume in the selected cubic unit and in cubic meters.
Formula and method
Box: length × width × height. Cylinder: π × radius² × height. Sphere: (4 ÷ 3) × π × radius³. Cone: (π × radius² × height) ÷ 3.
Tips for better estimates
For cylinders and cones, enter radius rather than diameter. For a box, all three dimensions are required and must use the same unit.
Important limitations
These formulas describe ideal solids. Irregular containers, wall thickness, partial filling, or voids are not included.
