You will need this measurement when estimating the amount of tile mortar grout and sealer that you will use for your project.
Area of wall of a room formula.
So if your room measures 11 feet wide x 15 feet long your total area will be 165 square feet.
The formula to find the area of the walls of a rectangular room is a 2h l b h is wall height l is room length and b is room breadth.
Length x width area.
Simplify your math by rounding inches to feet unless absolutely necessary.
Sketch the surface area to be measured and record the measurements and results as you go.
The area of doors and windows are ignored.
Its area bh observe the opposite walls being of the same size and shape have the same area too.
Its area lh for the rectangle daeh the lengths of two adjacent sides are b and h.
Hence the total area of the four walls lh bh lh bh 2lh 2bh 2h l b.
Once you have all of these measurements down subtract the area of the windows and doors from the total area of the wall.
For the rectangle cdhg the lengths of two adjacent sides are l and h.
Walls to calculate the area of a wall use the standard formula of length x width area.
Because most walls are square or rectangular you can determine their surface area by multiplying the width and height measurements and then subtracting any door or window space.
