Worked example

Inputs

Current pile volume
1.2 m³
Loosening expansion
20 %
Receiving bay width
1.2 m
Receiving bay depth
1.2 m
Working fill height
1 m

Expected results

Turned pile volume
1.44 m³
Receiving bay volume margin
0 m³

How to use this tool

  1. Enter current pile volume, loosening expansion, receiving bay width, receiving bay depth, and working fill height in the displayed units.
  2. Calculate and use each labeled result for compost turning bay capacity. Compare the result with a measured sample before committing materials.

Try this example

{
  "pile": 1.2,
  "expansion": 20,
  "width": 1.2,
  "depth": 1.2,
  "height": 1
}

Accuracy and scope

Rectangular volume scenario, not a structural design or compost process recommendation.
