How the Plastering Material Calculator Works
The calculator uses a simple formula to determine the total amount of material needed: Total Material = (Length x Width) x Number of Coats x Material Density. The material density is based on the type of material being used, with cement requiring 20 kg/m² per coat and gypsum requiring 15 kg/m² per coat.
| Length (m) | Width (m) | Number of Coats | Material Type | Total Material Needed (kg) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | 5 | 2 | Cement | 2000 |
| 15 | 10 | 1 | Gypsum | 1500 |
| 20 | 15 | 3 | Cement | 9000 |
