To fill an 8" x 8" x 16" concrete block with grout, you first need to calculate the volume of the block. The volume is 8 inches (width) x 8 inches (height) x 16 inches (length) = 1024 cubic inches. Since there are 1728 cubic inches in a cubic foot, this converts to about 0.59 cubic feet of grout needed to fill one block. Always consider purchasing a little extra grout to account for spillage or variations in the mix.

What is grout used for?
Grout is a construction material used to embed rebars in masonry walls, connect sections of pre-cast concrete, fill voids, and seal joints (like those between tiles).

Sometimes color tint is applied as a thick liquid and hardens over time, much like mortar.
