Where:
Explanation: The length and width are multiplied to get the total area of the rectangular space.
Details: Accurate room size measurement is essential for material estimation, space planning, and project budgeting.
Tips: Measure the longest wall for length and the perpendicular wall for width. Enter both measurements in meters.
Q1: How do I measure irregular shaped rooms?
A: Divide the room into rectangular sections, calculate each area separately, then sum them together.
Q2: Can I use feet instead of meters?
A: Yes, but ensure both measurements use the same unit. The result will be in square feet.
Q3: How accurate should my measurements be?
A: For most projects, measurements to the nearest centimeter (0.01m) are sufficient.
Q4: Does this account for doors and windows?
A: No, this calculates total wall-to-wall area. Subtract non-floor areas separately if needed.
Q5: How do I convert to square feet?
A: Multiply square meters by 10.764 to get square feet.
