Drywall Materials for 80 m² → 58 Boards & 220m Studs

Calculate the exact number of drywall sheets (gypsum boards), metal studs, tracks, joint compound, tape and screws per square meter.

Drywall Boards (+7% waste)22 Boards
Vertical Studs (linear m)83 m lineales
Horizontal Tracks (linear m)27 m lineales
Joint Compound & Tape29 kg / 99 m

Material Consumption Ratios for Drywall Framing Systems

Construction Standard (ASTM C840 / EN 520): Calculation includes a 7% waste factor on gypsum boards and standard stud centers at 400 mm (16") or 600 mm (24").

Total Board Area (m²) = Wall Area × Total Board Layers × 1.07 (7% waste)
Linear Meters of Studs = Wall Area × (2.75 m/m² at 400mm centers | 2.10 m/m² at 600mm centers)
