How to calculate the square footage?A more complex and at the same time a simple question for the repair, probably does not exist.Endless calculations, counting people out of themselves.How many families destroyed, a repair?It is not known, but it was not done without a divorce for sure.
There is quite a simple way to calculate the wallpaper a room, or rather their required amount.It is necessary to introduce a wall sweep, and even better to draw them.Measure each wall: height and length.It is better to do it more than once and in a few places.As you know, most of the apartments it is impossible to find at least one right angle.By measuring the wall, it should be taken as the value of its greatest figures obtained.If the wall is rectangular or almost rectangular, the method how to calculate the square footage, which constitute its area, is simple: it is necessary to multiply the length and height of the wall.Putting all of the area of the walls in the room, we obtain the required amount of wallpaper.But calculations have not yet been completed.
Before calculate the square footage that you need to close the wallpaper, you must decide whether the cloth wallpaper glued butt or overlap, in the calculation of these quantities also need to be taken into account.Wallpaper rolls have a certain length and width, and are glued, usually vertically, although variations are possible.It is not recommended glue wallpaper so that the middle of the cloth fell on the corner, it is better to stick 2 overlap.In general, a non-trivial task on geometry lessons to this is not ready.In addition, we must note that the door and windows to seal wallpaper is not necessary, but the space above and below them - yes.In general, the question of how to calculate square meters of walls, not too relevant, but the walls to avoid the measure did not succeed.
standard width of the roll of wallpaper - 53 centimeters.Length - 10 meters.Take for example a room with walls of 5.5 by 8.3 meters, the width of the ceiling - 2,6 meters.Plus, the space above the door - 60 centimeters, as well as above and below the window - 1 meter.The width of the door takes away from smaller length of 1 meter wall and window - 2 meters.That is, the width of the wall is a 2 walls - at 8.3 meters, 1 wall - 4.5 meters and the last wall - 3.5 meters.And do not forget about the pieces around doors and windows.
Ceiling height - 2.6 meters, then from each roll will almost 4 cloth lacking 16 centimeters, that is 4 centimeters on each piece of wallpaper.A small detail - no wallpaper glued butt to the floor and the ceiling is
small gap, so that it is possible to say that with each roll quite get 4 pieces from floor to ceiling.On the wall of a length of 8.3 meters is necessary for 8.3 * 0.53 = 4.4 of cloth, that is 4 and a half, just half will be in the corners, so that the first piece of glue will need a little departing from
angle.In both walls, thus nine strips of wallpaper.The remaining 2 most difficult wall.Excluding the additional pieces on the wall 4.5 meters - 4.5 * 0.53 = 2.4 cloth, a wall 3.5 meters - 3.5 * 1.9 = 0.53.In the room - 2.4 + 1.9 + 9 = 13.56, which is more than 3 but less than 4 rolls.Do not forget the space above and below the window and over the door.In general, 4 rolls accurately enough, and should not be much left.
Calculate the cost of repairs so as to make all quality, but do not make a dent in the budget - the greatest art.But the cases where the wallpaper is missing a little bit, too frequent, so that all payments should be done very carefully.
