Unusual Shapes
Formula:
Divide area into sections of regular geometric shapes,
calculate area of individual sections, then total.
Example:
Triangle: 0.5 x B (15 ft.) x H (30 ft) = 225 sq. ft.
Rectangle: 30 ft x 45 ft = 1,350 sq. ft.
Cicle: 3.14 x 9 x 9 = 258 sq. ft. /2 = 127 sq. ft.
Sod
Needed = 225 sq. ft + 1,350 sq. ft + 127 sq. ft
= 1,702 sq. ft.
