So for 80sq metres with a 80mm width board... 80sq m/0.08m = 1000 linear metres.....does that sound about right??

But you are right on the money. Re: How to convert Linear metre into metre square? 12Sep 29, 2008 4:19 pm 80mm boards - 12.5 L/M per sq. metre
130mm boards - 7.69 L/M per sq. metre Re: How to convert Linear metre into metre square? 13Sep 29, 2008 4:30 pm Thank you to everyone who has helped!!
I'm not very mathematical so all those calculations were confusing me. Thanks to Luke, that's exactly what I wanted. All the calculations all were good, it all got to the same point. But Luke's one was easier to process!! Thanks again!! Re: How to convert Linear metre into metre square? 14Apr 01, 2009 11:06 pm It's simple. If you have 80 sq. meters, just divide it with the width of the board. Eg if your floorboards are 19cm = 0.19m wide, you will need 80/0.19 = 421 linear meters. They suggest to add at least 10% for cutoffs, so you will need 421 + 42.1 = around 463 linear meters. consider putting in wall WC instead of robe in the same bedroom, then it might be doable to hook up to the existing piping. 4 6611 No idea about the driveway question, but your price for a house that size including landscaping seems very good! 1 6155 I use Tramex moisture meter and it will tell me instantly if the wall is cement sheet or plaster or masonite but most people dont have the equipment. 5 7062 |
