Stone Veneer Material Takeoff

Estimate natural thin veneer flats, separate outside corner units, and optional scratch-coat and pointing mortar quantities.

Inputs

Project inputs

Range: at least 0.01 ft2

Sum each clad plane once, including areas represented by outside corner units. Subtract openings separately.

Range: at least 0 ft2

Enter doors, windows, and other openings. If this exceeds gross wall area, net area floors at zero and the excess is reported.

Range: at least 0 ft

Measure outside corners separately. Do not include inside corners or wall returns unless the selected product is sold for them.

Range: at least 0.01 ft2/LF

Enter the selected product/supplier conversion for flat area represented by each linear foot of corner units. This product-specific input is required even when corner length is 0 because the definition evaluates every formula input.

Range: at least 0.01 ft2

Use the selected stone veneer product label or supplier coverage.

Range: at least 0 %

Set from stone shape, joint layout, cuts, and selection. No universal percentage is assumed.

Range: at least 0.01 linear ft

Use the selected corner product carton coverage.

Range: at least 0 %

Set separately for the measured corner layout and product packaging. Enter 0 only when no additional allowance is intended.

Range: at least 0 ft2

Enter the exact product coverage for the specified scratch-coat thickness; QUIKRETE No. 1137-88 lists approximately 17 ft2 per 80-lb bag at 1/2-in thickness as one product example. Enter 0 to omit this stage.

Range: at least 0 ft2

Enter selected product coverage for the actual stone and joint width/depth. Enter 0 to omit this stage.

Range: at least 0 %

Applied to both optional mortar stages. Enter 0 only when no added allowance is intended; no universal percentage is assumed.
