Wall, gable, and package model

Wall areas are summed, openings are subtracted without going below zero, and optional triangular gable area is added. Allowance produces adjusted area; one siding square is 100 square feet.

Coverage boundary

Package count uses only coverage entered by the user. The calculator does not estimate trim, starter strip, flashing, fasteners, labor, overlap, wind loading, or manufacturer requirements.
