| COVERAGE CALCULATION |
EXAMPLE |
| 1 |
Calculate total wall area (length
x height) |
Length x height = 160 square feet
|
| 2 |
Subtract square footage of openings
(windows, doors) to determine wall area
for siding |
Door = Ð 20 square feet
Window = Ð 20 square feet
Area for siding = 120 square feet
|
| 3 |
Add 10% for trim |
Plus 10% for trim = 120 + 12 = 132
|
| 4 |
Multiply figure by the appropriate
factor for linear or surface measure
|
For 6 in. siding:
132 x 2.67 = 352.4 linear feet
132 x 1.33 = 175.6 surface measure
