Real site dimensions and workmanship affect the quantity.
Transport, cutting, pattern and breakage affect how much extra material to order.
This is an early quantity estimate. Site conditions, drawings, product details and workmanship can change the final requirement.
Net surface area times thickness gives wet plaster volume; mix shares and the dry factor then estimate cement and sand.
Measure both faces where applicable, deduct openings consistently and confirm the specified thickness and mix.
Entering millimetres as metres creates a thousand-fold volume error, so the thickness unit must be respected.
Use this calculator only for an early quantity estimate. A qualified civil or structural engineer must decide the final structure, reinforcement and safety details.
Wet volume = net area × thickness; dry volume is divided by mix parts
