How to Estimate Bucket Capacity. Volume = Cross Sectional Area x Length We all know that the volume is calculated by multiplying Width x Height x Length or Area of the end x Length. But what if the area is not a simple geometric shape, or in the case of Heavy Equipment Buckets, how do you define the shape for the volume to be calculated?
