40 x 72 = 2880 sq.ft. x .5" = 1440 cu ft 1440/27 cu.ft.per yard = 53.33 cu.yds.x local concrete price per cu. yd. = material cost. guess $100 per yard = $5333.00 material cost.
40 x 26 = 1040 sq.ft. x .5 = 520 cu. ft./27 cu. ft. per yard = 19.25 cu.yds. x local concrete price = material cost, guess $100 per yard = $1925.00
