Area / Volume / General Calculation
- There are 1000 litres in one cubic metre
- 1 cubic metre of product covers 10 square metres to a depth of 100mm
- 20 x 50 litre bags of product make 1 cubic metres
- A roll of turf covers 1 square metre. (0.6m wide x 1.7m long)
- 1m3 mulches / soils / Turf Gro covers 25m2 @ 40mm OR 50m2 @ 20mm
- 1 tonne sand / aggregate / pebbles covers approx. 12m2 @ 50mm
- Concrete mix - approx. 9 builders barrows = 1m3
- 1 tonne of brickies sand and 10 x 20kg bags of cement will lay 1000 standard bricks or 600 200-series blocks
Working out m2
Length x Width = M2
Eg. 6m x 5m = 30m2
Working out m3
Length x Width x Depth = M3
Eg. 6m x 5m x 2m = 60m3
