Regardless of the type of decoration, home decoration must use ceramic tiles. According to the budget selection of tiles, we must also learn how to calculate the amount of tiles.
There are many kinds of ceramic tiles on the market, and the prices are also very different. It is often chosen to have a tile with a price of more than ten yuan. By the end of the whole house, the total price of the tiles will differ by a few thousand or tens of thousands of dollars, because the relationship between the amount of tiles is not considered. Therefore, China Tile Network Xiaobian today teaches you how to calculate the amount of ceramic tiles. The method is very simple, just three steps to ensure that everyone can learn.
The first step: calculate the area of ​​the tile to be tiled
The principle of the tile usage calculation method is: first calculate the area where the tile needs to be laid, then divide by the size of each tile, and finally get the number of tiles required. To determine the paving area, you must first determine which areas are to be tiled, and then use a ruler to measure the flat area of ​​the place.
In general, floor wall tiles are more common, and the top of the house is usually not covered with tiles because of the ceiling or ceiling. Tiles or wooden floors can be used in the living room, dining room and bedroom floor, but tiles must be used on the balcony, bathroom and kitchen floor. If the ground is an ordinary rectangle or square, simply multiply the measured length by the width; if it is an irregular shape, you need to calculate the overall area first, then calculate the excess area and reduce the compensation.
Similar to the ground, tiles, paint or wallpaper can be selected for the living room, dining room and bedroom walls, while tiles are required for balconies, bathrooms and kitchen walls. It should be noted that because the ceiling is installed, the bathroom and the kitchen do not need to cover the entire wall. If the floor is 2.8m high, then the wall brick only needs to be 2.6m high. Then measure the length of each wall separately.
Step 2: Choose the size of the tile
Once we have determined the area that needs to be tiled, we can choose the size of the tile. Tiles can be divided into exterior wall tiles, interior wall tiles and floor tiles according to their use. The sizes of the three bricks are not identical. Since the exterior wall tiles are used less, we only discuss interior wall tiles and floor tiles.
The general dimensions of the floor tiles are 30*30cm, 30*60cm, 33*33cm, 40*40cm, 60*60cm, 80*80cm, 1*1m, 1.2*1.2m, and the like. Larger spaces such as the living room dining room, using 80*80cm or larger tiles can be more upscale; while bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms and balconies are suitable for tiles 60*60cm or smaller.
The general dimensions of wall tiles are 10*10cm, 10*20cm, 20*30cm, 25*40cm, 30*45cm, 30*60cm, 40*80cm, etc. The size is much smaller than the floor tiles, and it is mainly rectangular. . Whether it is wall tiles or floor tiles, choose the size according to your own budget (the bigger the tile size, the more expensive) and the room size.
After finishing the floor tiles and wall tiles, don't forget to calculate the number of baseboards and waist panels. Compared with the floor brick, the calculation of the baseboard and the waist piece is much simpler. By dividing the length of the wall directly by the length of the baseboard or the waist piece, the number of the required foot line and the waist piece can be obtained. .
Step 3: Choose the paving method used for the tiles
The increasing style of decoration has given the tiles a variety of paving methods. Consumers can choose the most suitable way for their own paving, and when they get satisfactory results, they can also show their own personality. The following small series selects the most representative three types of paving methods to explain the calculation method of ceramic tile usage.
The first is horizontal and vertical
When paving, the paving is carried out in parallel with the wall edges, the brick seams are aligned without leaving seams, and at the same time, the jointing agent is applied with a grouting agent close to the color of the brick. This paving method looks fresh and tidy, and the rectangular tiles are horizontally or vertically paved to make the space look spacious. The amount of tiles in this way is the easiest to calculate. Divide the area directly by the size of each tile, then take an integer and add one or two more tiles as a loss.
The second is the diamond paving method
Some people who like personality like diamond-shaped paving, which makes the wall and the ground look more distinctive, and can see more different lines. It is not difficult to calculate the amount of tile used in this paving method. It is also divided by the area of ​​each brick and then rounded. The difference is that this method of laying is very demanding for the decoration master, and the tile loss will be relatively high, and the loss rate will reach 15%.
The third is combined paving
Tiles of different sizes, styles and colors can be paved in a certain combination, showing different effects on the ground, avoiding single tone and uniform paving, and can be waveguided in key areas such as hospitality areas, TV background walls, etc. Lines dot the edges and even use decorative painting. This method of paving is the most difficult to calculate. It is necessary to calculate the amount of tiles used in each area step by step, then add 10%-15% of the loss, and finally add the amount of each tile together.
Summary of small series: The method of calculating the amount of ceramic tiles is divided into three steps. The first step is to determine where to use the tiles, and calculate the area to be tiled (the ground is directly long and wide, and the amount is reduced; the length of the wall is multiplied by the height of the floor minus the height of the ceiling); the second step is to determine each The size of the tile used in the place where the tile is to be tiled; the third step is to choose the calculation formula according to the area, tile size and paving method (different paving methods have different losses). Clearly calculating the amount of tiles required for the decoration will help us easily select the most suitable tile products according to the budget.
