One material list
Every added calculation becomes a material line with its quantity, unit, cost category, entered price and any assumptions that were used — together with a note of what it was calculated from.
Which calculator should I start with?
Start with the material you are ordering first — usually the base or bulk material. Once that quantity exists, add it to Project Mode and let the next calculation join it in the same plan.
Do all sixteen calculators work the same way?
They share the same engine and the same conventions: areas are added before volume is calculated, waste and compaction are applied consistently, and order quantities are rounded up where ordering requires it.
Do you support metric measurements?
The forms are built around US units (feet, inches, cubic yards, tons). Results include square and cubic metre conversions in the engine output, but the input forms ask for feet and inches.
Can I calculate several areas at once?
Yes. Area-based calculators accept multiple shapes — rectangles, circles, triangles or a known square footage — and add them before calculating volume.
Will the calculator fill in prices for me?
No. Every price is something you enter, and an estimate without a price shows "Price not entered" rather than an invented figure.
How do I keep the results?
Use Add to Project on any calculator, then open Project Mode to combine, edit and print the plan, or save the printable plan as a PDF.
