You can calculate the volume of a cylinder using the following formula
V = ∏ x r2 x H
Where:
V = Volume
Π = Pi (3.142 approx)
r = radius
H = Height
Example
You’ve been asked the calculate the volume of a length of pipe. The pipe is 5m in height and has a radius of 2m. Calculate the volume using the following formula:
V = ∏ x r2 x H
V = 3.142 x 22 x 5
V = 3.142 x 4 x 5
V = 12.568 x 5
V = 62.8m3
