For a flat slab or patio, use the rectangle option with a thickness of about 4 inches. For a round footing or fence-post hole, switch to the round option and enter the hole diameter and depth.

We add a 10 percent waste allowance by default, which is standard for bagged concrete to cover spillage, uneven subgrade, and over-excavated holes. You can change it.
