i have to do a math project and it involves making a park. i have to quot;pretendquot; to buy cement and create a quot;pretendquot; park. i need to no the cost to buy cement per sq ft.
I think you mean concrete. Cement is used to bond things together, like mortar, and is also used to make concrete. In our part of the country, concrete is going for about $110 per cubic yard delivered. You need to know the thickness of your concrete, as well as the area. Example: 20' x 20' x 4thick slab......equals 20 x 20 x .33 [or one third of a foot]. This equals 132 cubic feet. A cubic yard of concrete has 27 cubic feet in it. You need to divide your total volume [132] by 27. This = 4.88 cubic yards of concrete needed for that size slab. Concrete is sold by the 1/3 yard, so this would round up to 5 cubic yards 5 x $110= $550
according to my calculations, the amount of concrete needed is the same cost as the amount of cubic dirt that lies underneath the soon to be conrete. i believe that in this state, the concrete will be need to be bought at as cheap a price you can get, dawwwg.
