Measure boundary segments
Subtract gate openings from wall face area. The foundation model follows the entered total boundary length; confirm whether foundations continue below a gate.

UNDERSTAND YOUR RESULT
Understand Your Boundary Quantities
Measure the boundary, openings and foundation separately. Keep pillars and finishes distinct to avoid counting the same work twice.
Account for openings and pillars
A uniform-wall result does not automatically include engineered columns or precast systems. Avoid counting column volume twice.
Review separate quantities
Review the displayed breakdown and assumptions before using this estimate.

What changes your result?
- Measure net masonry. Subtract gate openings from wall face area. The foundation model follows the entered total boundary length; confirm whether foundations continue below a gate.
- Pillars need separate design. A uniform-wall result does not automatically include engineered columns or precast systems. Avoid counting column volume twice.
Assumptions and limits
Confirm measurements, inclusions and price assumptions. These planning results do not replace professional engineering, legal or lender advice.
Results retain the assumptions you selected. Compare like-for-like areas and avoid counting the same item twice.
View Technical Calculation Details
Masonry area=L×H−openings−pillar width×height×count; pillar V=count×width×depth×height. Continuous foundation V=L×width×depth. Finish excludes pillar faces; cost=sum(non-overlapping quantities×user rates).
Currency totals: 2 decimal places; geometry and quantities: 6. Whole units/boxes round upward with floating-point ULP correction; internal calculation precision is retained.
