What this calculator does
Volume measures three-dimensional space. Use this calculator for common solid shapes such as boxes, cylinders, spheres and cones.
Formula used
Cuboid volume is length times width times height. Cylinder volume is pi times radius squared times height. Sphere volume is four thirds pi radius cubed. Cone volume is one third pi radius squared times height.
How to read the result
The result uses cubic units. If you enter centimetres, the result is cubic centimetres.
Assumptions
- All measurements must use the same unit.
- Uses ideal geometric shapes.
- Does not adjust for wall thickness or material loss.
Sources and checks
This calculator uses a standard public formula. Where rules or thresholds can change, source links are listed on the relevant page.
Frequently asked questions
