Tile Coverage Calculator

Calculate Total Number of Tiles





Formula

The formula to calculate the Total Number of Tiles is:

\[ \text{TT} = \left\lceil \frac{A \times \left(1 + \frac{W}{100}\right)}{TS} \right\rceil \]

What is Tile Coverage?

Tile coverage refers to the number of tiles required to cover a specific area, taking into account the size of the tiles and any additional waste. Waste accounts for breakage, cutting, and pattern matching. It is important to estimate tile coverage accurately to ensure that enough tiles are purchased for a project, while also minimizing excess.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{TT} = \left\lceil \frac{100 \times \left(1 + \frac{10}{100}\right)}{1} \right\rceil = 110 \]

The Total Number of Tiles (TT) needed is 110.
