Drywall And Plasterboard: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers room dimensions (m or ft). Stub page while the tool and its worked example are prepared.
Drywall And Plasterboard Calculator is a planned calculator in the home and energy section of Super Calculator, covering home and garden.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: room dimensions (m or ft), ceiling height (m or ft), sheet size (label), openings (n) and waste (%).
Outputs: sheets required (n), joint tape (m or ft), joint compound (kg), screws (n) and cost (currency).
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Sheets required equal wall and ceiling area divided by sheet area, times one plus a cut waste allowance, rounded up. Joint compound and tape quantities scale with linear joint length, which is a function of sheet layout rather than of area.
