Volume Of A Hexagonal Tank

It's all very interesting but why complicate it :S

(C+A) X B X Height = Volume ;)

If you measure in cm just divide your answer by 1000 and you have litres.



MW is spot on though if you need it precise, just don't let anyone interrupt you when you are counting buckets, don't want to have to start again eh? :grr:
Actually, tank side length (C in the diagram) squared times 2.6 times height is about as uncomplicated as you can get. The tank sides are simple to measure, mush more so than A or B in the diagram.

Using the litre jug method on a 75 gallon hexagon tank like this one might take a little longer than you wanted to spend. And if the phone rings and you lose count.....drain it and start over. :lol:
