One, how to calculate the area of inner wall bricks

Large hardware stores typically provide conversion charts that allow you to calculate the required number of tiles based on the area of the interior wall. Some charts allow you to calculate the tile quantity based on the height and width of the wall where the tiles will be installed. After calculating the total quantity, it is recommended to add a certain percentage for wastage during installation.

Alternatively, you can calculate the approximate number of tiles needed using the following formula: (Decorative area ÷ Area of each tile) × (1 + 3%), where 3% represents the estimated wastage during installation.

Two. Calculation method for the quantity of interior wall tiles.


1、To calculate the number of tiles, use the area measurement.

Total number of tiles = Actual tile area (㎡) x Actual tile cutting loss (5% to 10% - typically 8%) ÷ Length of a single tile (m) ÷ Width of a single tile (m)

Assuming a total of 60 square meters of 800mm x 800mm tiles, how many individual tiles are required?

Total number of sheets = 60 x 1.08 ÷ 0.8 ÷ 0.8 = 102 (sheets)

Total number of boxes = 102 ÷ 3 (This specification typically contains 3 pieces per box) = 34 (boxes)

Generally, rounding is used for calculations, or you can agree on a method with the supplier.

2、How to calculate the number of tiles neededQuantity

For example: If your bathroom floor area is 5 square meters, how much tile do you need to purchase? How is the calculation performed?

Actual wall area = (Floor area multiplied by √4) multiplied by the room height minus the area of doors and windows.

For example, if the floor area is 5 square meters, then the required area for interior wall tiles is: 5 * √5 * 4 * 2.5 (average use height) = 22 square meters.

3. Calculation method for the number of inner wall tile lines

First, the designer or the installer should measure the total length of the waistline to be applied. The calculation method is:

Total number of sheets required = Waistline length (m) ÷ Length of single sheet's waistline (m)

For example: If the waistline length is 8m and the selected waistline specification is 80mm x 300mm, then the total number of pieces = 8 ÷ 0.3 = 26.66... = 27 (pieces).

When ordering, the quantity is typically calculated per sheet. If there are any fractional amounts, they are usually rounded up to the nearest whole number.
