Examples
Estimate the number of rolls of welded wire mesh you will need for an area that is 100' long, 40'8" wide. You will overlap the wire by 6". The rolls will come in total length of 50' and width of 5'. Use a 5% waste factor.
-Length: 100ft
-Width: 40ft 8in
-Roll Length: 50ft
-Roll Width: 5ft
-Lap: 6in
