The ceramic tile – material expensive, besides fragile therefore at repair it is very important to know how it is correct to calculate how many it is necessary tiles to the bathroom that was enough both for facing, and in a stock remained a little that in case of damage in use were it is possible to replace separate fragments.
How to calculate how many it is necessary tiles on a floor?
For this purpose it is necessary to know tile parameters, let us assume, of 0.3х0.3 m and a floor – 1.7х2 m. At division of width of a floor into the size of a tile 6 tiles will turn out across. Having divided floor length into the tile size, we will receive 7 tiles down. Total 13 fragments of a tile.
How to calculate how many the tile is necessary to the bathroom on walls?
To calculate room perimeter, it will make 7.4 m. To subtract door width from this value, and to divide the received figure into length of a frieze and border. If the frieze has the size of 30х8 cm, then the formula for calculation will be such: (7.4-0.6): 0.3=23 friezes.
Further it will be required to calculate how many a tile it is necessary to the bathroom how it will keep within. If it is planned for height in 1 m from a floor to put a tile of dark color, then from height of ceilings it is necessary to take away one meter and height of a frieze: 2.7-1-0.08=1.62 m. Having calculated the space occupied by a light and dark tile to divide the received values into the area of one tile. In the first case the formula will be such: (7.4-0.6) h1.62: (0.3х0.3) = 123 pieces. In the second case such: (7.4-0.6) h1: (0.3х0.3) = 76 pieces.
If it is planned to use a decorative tile, then the number of a light and dark tile should be reduced by quantity of the acquired decor. Anyway it is necessary to consider existence of eaves, ledges, inserts and other features of the room if they are and then already to count how many a tile it is necessary for the bathroom and how to minimize risk of damage.
