May 26, 2018 - We then times it by pi (3.14) to get 376.8. That is the circumference of the bench if it were to go all around the fire pit. We used the angle of 22.5 (45* degrees, for each turn but since there were two cuts for each turn, we divided it by 2) so that makes 8 different sections, so we divided the 376.8 by 8 to get 47.1″. So that is how we got out started point to start building. The back of the base will be 47″. To determine the inside of the bench, you do the same equation but don’t add the depth of the bench (the 16.5″) and then you times by pi and divide by 8, which gave us 34″.

r/Concrete on Reddit: Any advice for DIY’ing concrete fire pit and bench
January 31, 2024 -

First, I’d 100% rather just hire pros to do this but I don’t have $10k or so to throw at it. I’m a mechanical engineer and I think, with a lot of help and luck, we can DIY this or something pretty close at least.

The plan is a concrete bench with a planter box around the back. Was looking at maybe a 3” thick wall for planter down to a depth of about 8-12”.

The entire area would be dug out, tamped, leveled, and set up for maybe 4-6” depth pad for the foundation and is about 15ft x 15ft. I’d plan to hire a concrete truck/pump and would like to fill the pad (bottom right) at the same time.

The main questions right now are:

  1. Do I need a concrete foundation? How deep? What kind of sub to use?

  2. What kind of drainage precautions should I consider?

I have more questions. Some i don’t even know yet, but any help is appreciated.

Fire Pit Benches - Melissa Lynch
August 8, 2016 - Immediately, I went on the computer to see if I could find plans for something similar, and I found the wonderful HandymanWire Simple Bench plans. As I suspected, the materials required were minimal, and build required no more sophisticated tools than a drill and a saw. Even better, I realized I could quickly build two at the same time by doubling up my cuts. I modified the original plans to include a straighter back, though I ended up making the angle steeper than I intended.
