Usage kg/m² → bags.

How we calculate it

What you enter

  • Area (m²)
  • Usage (kg/m²)
  • Bag (kg)

Formula

kilograms = Area × Usage
bags = ⌈ kilograms ÷ Bag ⌉

Example

The default values from the form, run through the same engine:

What to watch out for

Adhesive usage depends on the trowel notch and how flat the substrate is. The figure here is the datasheet usage; on an uneven wall it can rise by half.
