BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How this calculation works.

Full-width strips across each face = floor((width + supplied gap)/(slat face width + supplied gap)); continuous cuts retain measured height and cut extra. Does not predict sound absorption, choose gap, fire performance or supporting design.

Slat stock lengths: 5 lengths

Continuous cuts use decreasing-length first-fit packing. This is a feasible count, not a guarantee of the minimum. Any per-cut extra is explicitly reserved by you. Only whole-width slats that fit are counted. Unfilled edge space is not assigned another trimmed slat. This is decorative quantity arithmetic, not acoustic performance.

Before you purchase

Use dimensions from your plan and properties from your chosen product. Any design spacing, section or fixing pattern must already be specified.
