How to measure the square footge of irregular areas to be sodded.
   

3. Irregular Shapes

Formula: Measure the length of the longest axis across the area. Every 10 feet along the length, measure the width of the area at right angles to the length line. Total all widths and multiply by 10.

Example: A= (40 feet + 30 feet + 50 ft) x 10 = 1200 sq. ft.

Sod Needed = A+B+C (1,300 sq. ft.) + D (1,200 sq ft) = 2,500 sq. ft.
