5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can I use different units?
A: The calculator uses meters for consistency. Convert other units to meters before inputting.

Q2: How do I calculate for irregular shapes?
A: This calculator is for rectangular spaces. For irregular shapes, use more complex formulas or divide into regular sections.

Q3: Does this account for container thickness?
A: No, this calculates internal volume. Subtract container walls for precise measurements.

Q4: How do I convert cubic meters to liters?
A: Multiply the result by 1000 (1 m³ = 1000 liters).

Q5: What about sloped surfaces?
A: Use average height for sloped areas or calculate separately for different sections.
