Calculation for turf quantity ordering:
Length x Width (metres) = m² (square metres)
m² = number of rolls
always allow 5% extra for cuts and wastage
Converting calculation for Feet and Yards:
Length x Width (feet) = Square feet
Square feet / 10.9 = m²
always round up!
Length x Width (yards) = Square yards
Square yards / 1.2 = m²
always round up!
Calculation for quantity of soil:
Area = Length x Width (metres) = m²
m² x Depth (inches) = Total
Total / 40 = m³ (cubic metres)
= no. of tote bags
Example:
10m x 20m = 200m²
200m² x 2" = 400
400 / 40 = 10m³
(10m³ would give 2 inches over an area of 200m²) |
