200 Calculator will calculate the quantity of 200 series blocks in a standard building.
Enter wall height in courses, number of bond beams, number of starter bars
(cores filled), steel door frames (standard 800 X 2000) and number of wall
ends. Wall ends are the ends of walls that stand alone. One stand alone wall has 2
ends. A 4 walled box has no ends.
Click
Add Wall to enter wall lengths and
AddWindow
to add opening dimensions. Click
to remove a window or wall.
Use the longest wall measurement, ie: for internal corners, add
the 200 to get the longest measurement. Openings are entered
by width in mm, height in mm, head course height in courses and number of
openings this size. Select boxes
for sills, bond
beams beneath openings, etc. When all the measurements are correctly entered,
click

If you're cutting blocks, concrete, stone or
ANYTHING and there's
DUST - DON'T TAKE THE RISK
Don't cut it, or cut it wet so there's
NO DUST -
Silicosis Sucks
And if you're cutting wet, wear a mask - there's dust in the spray too!
What do we think? - They're 2 different things:
A
Meter is a device to measure things - like a Volt Meter or a Parking Meter
A
Metre is about 3'-3~3/8"
Although diameter and perimeter as measurements - don't seem to fit very well
If the US ever goes Metric, you'll be able to use a Meter to measure Meters - A Meter Meter
(And when we go back to the moon, let's go Metric, ay?)
