BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How this calculation works.

Estimate a measured strip area from irregularly spaced stations and left and right offsets. Measured planar area, not earthwork grade selection or drainage design.

Area = sum Δstation × (width at start + width at end) / 2.Calculated with normalised units

Measured strip area: 12.5 m²

Offsets vary linearly between supplied stations. Curves and abrupt changes need extra measured stations.

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.
