- Rectangle = length x width
- Adjusted area = measured area x (1 + waste %)
- Rolls = adjusted area / roll coverage, rounded up

Method And Limits
Coverage math with supplier assumptions in view.
Roll sizes, pallet configurations, cuts, curves, grade, damage, delivery increments, and field changes vary. Replace the defaults with current supplier values before relying on the result.
50 ft x 20 ft with 10% waste
The measured area is 1,000 sq ft and adjusted coverage is 1,100 sq ft. At 10 sq ft per roll and 450 sq ft per pallet, that is 110 rolls or 3 whole pallets.
