 How to use the calculator

How to use

  1. Enter the project information
  2. Enter the wall thickness
  3. Choose the formwork type:

    1. Two sides (typical): you set up and strip formwork on both sides of the wall, inside and outside.
    2. One side only: since you are installing a wood fibre board or plywood on the exterior side, you will set up and strip formwork on one side only, inside the building.
  4. Enter the dimensions of the wall surfaces to be formed:

    1. Start by entering the floor-to-ceiling wall dimensions (rectangular portions)
    2. Add the gable portions. You can then enter the wall width (base) and the gable slope. 

      1. Centred: most gables are centred, i.e. both sides have the same slope. 
      2. Single slope: if you have a single-slope (shed) roof, choose this option
      3. Off-centre: if you have two different slopes on either side.
  5. Enter the desired extra margin (buffer)
  6. See the quantities of the various materials required to build your hempcrete walls.
  7. The summary is always shown on the right (full-screen desktop view)
  8. Export your data and results to PDF or Excel.
  9. You can also save the data you entered and reload it later
