How do I calculate the volume for a concrete slab?

Use the `calculate_slab_volume` tool. Provide the length, width, and thickness in feet and inches, along with your preferred waste percentage.

Can I estimate the cost of my concrete pour?

Yes, after calculating your total volume, use `estimate_cost_by_region` with your specific region key (e.g., US_EAST) to get a price estimate.

How many 80lb bags do I need?

The tool automatically calculates the number of 80lb bags required based on the total volume, using the industry standard yield of 0.6 cubic feet per bag.
