Formula and assumptions
BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How this calculation works.

The top must converge to one point. Height is perpendicular to the base.

V = base area × height / 3Calculated with normalised units

A worked example

Illustrative inputs only. Product properties and design dimensions are not recommendations for your project.

Base area
12 m²
Perpendicular height
3 m

Pyramid volume: 12 m³
