How This Calculator Works

Layout Method

The calculator approximates a rectangular layout from your sheet count: rows = ceil(√N), cols = ceil(N/rows). This gives a reasonable grid approximation for estimating seam and perimeter linear footage.

Seam Calculations

Vertical seams = rows × (cols-1) × panel height. Horizontal seams = (rows-1) × cols × panel width. Orientation swaps dimensions. Layers multiply all trim quantities.

Perimeter

Perimeter LF = 2 × (rows × panel height) + 2 × (cols × panel width). Calculates J-channel or cap trim needed around the entire installation edge.

Corners

Each inside or outside corner requires one 8-ft trim stick per layer. Corner trim is calculated separately from seam and perimeter trim.
