How Much gravel do I need for a 12×28 Garage Foundation?
A 12×28 garage foundation generally requires around 4.15 cubic yards of gravel. Since we recommend making your foundation a foot longer and wider than the garage on all sides, you will need a pad that is 13×29. We also recommend that you make it at least 4″ deep. These are the assumptions that we used to arrive at the above calculation for gravel needs for a 12×28 garage pad.
Please note that these calculations will only work if your site is level. If you are installing your garage on a slope, more gravel will be required. For more site prep information, check out our site prep page.
How many square feet is a 12×28 Garage?
The total footprint of a 12×28 garage is 336 square feet. Keep in mind that a footprint of 336 square feet does not equate to 336 square feet of usable interior space. To get a calculation of usable interior space, you need to remove at least 5″ from all sides. This allows for 3.5″ for the wall studs, and up to 1.5″ of sheathing and siding on the outside of the building.
Thus, the usable interior space for a 12×28 garage should be calculated by multiplying 11 feet 7 inches by 27 feet 7 inches, resulting in approximately 319 square feet of usable floor space.
