Rolls to buy
Whole quantities are rounded up.
How it's calculated
Effective roll area = (roll width − side overlap) × roll length. Rolls = area with waste ÷ effective coverage, rounded up.
Calculations use consistent units for your selected measurements. The waste allowance is applied once to the measured requirement. Whole purchase quantities are rounded up.
What this estimate includes
Include required end laps and details in waste. Product suitability and location within the assembly need separate assessment.
Quantity and arithmetic estimates only. Use project specifications for installation and design requirements.
