Exact model and finish codes
01 / A working quantity
Build your purchasing worksheet.
Use measured quantities and actual supplier package sizes. The example inputs show the arithmetic; they are not a project takeoff or an ordering recommendation.
Quantity calculator
Measured quantity × (1 + allowance ÷ 100) ÷ package coverage, rounded up. Counted items use one item per order unit. Confirm cuts, overlaps, accessories and ordering increments with the supplier.
