This section will calculate the number of squares of siding you will need based on the information you have entered above.

To complete the estimate for siding material, all surface area calculations are added, then 10% is added to allow for waste, then the final figure is divided by 100 to get the number of squares of siding needed.

Esitmate the number of vented panels needed for your project.
Select the brand of siding you are using (required):
Charter Oak™   Greenbrial Beaded™   Super Span™ Alliance T4 (fully vented)   Alliance T4 (center vented)   2T

Give the following information in FEET:
(Length of attic floor x Width of attic floor )   /   2


Now the computer will the following values:

Total Net Free Area "tnfa" = Sq. Inches
Soffit Venting needed (tnfa / 2) = Sq. Inches
Approximate number of Full Panels Required "fpr" =
fpr = [(tnfa / 2)   /    rounded up to nearest whole number.]
