A yard is a unit of measure for concrete that equals one cubic yard of material. A cubic yard of concrete mix will cover an area 9 feet by 9 feet by one inch thick.

According to industry standards and calculations, a yard of concrete, when poured at a depth of 6 inches, will cover approximately 54 square feet. Keep in mind that this coverage area may vary slightly depending on factors such as the type of concrete used and the specific project requirements.

1 yard of concrete:- 1 cubic yard of concrete which visually is 3 feet long by 3 feet wide by 3 feet tall, can weigh around 4050 pound and will cover approximately 108 square feet with 3 inches deep.

According to the table above, one cubic yard of concrete placed at a thickness of 5-inches covers 65 square feet. In a perfect universe, our 1,080 square foot driveway will need exactly 16.62 cubic yards of concrete (1,080 square feet / 65 square feet equals 16.62 cubic yards).
