Whole quantities are rounded up.

How it's calculated

Unit module = (unit length + joint) × (unit height + joint). Count = net area ÷ module, with waste, 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

Enter actual face dimensions and the mortar joint separately. Do not add a joint to nominal dimensions that already include it.

Quantity and arithmetic estimates only. Use project specifications for installation and design requirements.
