Calculator
The Calculation
- Enter the wall length. (meters)
- Enter the wall height. (meters)
- Enter the combined square meters of your windows and doors in "Wall Openings" (square meters)
- Enter the board length of your cladding. (millimeters)
- Enter the exposed face value of your cladding. (millimeters)
- Enter waste factor if required. (percentage)
The Results
- Square Meters of Wall is the wall area minus wall openings.
- Amount of cladding to cover the wall is the amount of boards needed to cover the wall.
- Waste factor is the amount of boards that will be added to the total based on your required waste factor.
- Total amount of cladding needed = the results from 2 and 3.
