Formula

ft² = ft³ ÷ thickness in feet.

Coverage depends on the layer thickness

Cubic feet cannot be converted to square feet until a thickness or depth is known. Convert the thickness to feet, then use A = V ÷ h. For example, 4.6 ft³ spread 2 in thick covers 27.6 ft² because 2 in = 1/6 ft. If the layer thickness varies across the area, using one average thickness gives only an estimate; split the job into zones when the depth changes substantially.
