Before starting to work on the room or exterior wall cladding, it is necessary to calculate the amount of material required. This is done in order not to buy it more than the required footage, or vice versa, so that it does not turn out to be too small. For a start, a plan is drawn up and it is determined how to calculate the amount of lining.
Clapboard, mainly sheathe flat surfaces. Therefore, to calculate required amount material use such an indicator as square meters.
Delivery of lining is made in bulk, unpacked, or in a package of shrink film with mandatory marking.
Standard dimensions of wooden lining (width, length and thickness), as well as its weight
Lining is a thin layer of natural wood. It is easy to install, without any gaps. The surface trimmed with it has a beautiful view. Thickness lining varies from 12 to 15mm, sometimes this size reaches 20mm (these boards are used for exterior decoration). This is quite enough not to break or not push through the installed wall paneling. This size should be taken into account when calculating the required volume of material.
The calculation of the cost depends on the material from which the finishing element is made and on its thickness. The standard length of the board is 2-3 meters, but sometimes you can find six-meter elements. When calculating the number of units of production it is necessary to pay attention to the useful width of the lining. Usually it is 80 or 88mm. But sometimes this size reaches 190mm. This indicator is wide in the wall paneling.
This finishing material is issued from various breeds of a tree. The better it is, the less waste you will get when performing work. Therefore, when selecting and calculating a board, it is necessary to ensure that its appearance complies with certain requirements for the corresponding tree species and grade.
When calculating the material should also take into account the weight of the lining. It depends on the wood used. One square meter of poplar, for example, weighs 5.7 kg, and ash - 11 kg.
Calculation of lining for finishing works: how many pieces are in one cube, and how to find out the necessary number of boards
For proper calculation, measure such values as the length, width and height of the room where the finishing work will be performed. Multiplying the last two indicators, get the necessary square meters.
If the surface you want to sheathe has an irregular rectangular shape, then the surface of the walls or ceiling is divided into separate triangles and calculate the area of each section. Then the results are summarized.
To make the calculation of the required volume of lining quite easily. To do this, the calculated area is multiplied by the thickness of the board. To find out how many pieces of lining in a cube, you need to decide on parameters such as length, thickness and width of each element. These three indicators are multiplied, and then 1m3 is divided by this number. Thus, it turns out the number of boards in a cubic meter.
It should be noted that the exact calculation involves the use of parts of the skin without any residues, which is impossible in real life. Therefore, the result obtained in the calculation is increased by 15% in case of unforeseen situations (marriage, defects, etc.).
More information about the size and calculation of the amount of lining
Lining can be of different sizes, how to calculate how many boards in pieces and in square meters in a cube?
The calculation of the amount of lining in a cube does not depend on the type and type of wood. Here the dimensions of the board are important. So, we are interested in the length, width and thickness of one whip.
Example: We have a board of 160 * 22 * 3000 mm. We translate into meters, we calculate the volume of one plate V = LxDxH, so V = 0.16х0.022Х3 = 0.01056 m 3. This amount should not be rounded, since large errors are obtained in large quantities.
Now we calculate how many boards are in a cube, divide 1 by the resulting volume: 1: 0.01056 = 94.7, so we get 94 whole boards and another piece about 2 m.
To calculate how many square meters in cubes, it is necessary to calculate the area of 1 board, S = DxL, multiply the length by the width: 0.16 * 3 = 0.48 m 2. Above, we have already considered that in our cube 94.7 boards, 0.48 x94.7 = 45.45 m 2 in cube. Another way is to divide 1 cube by the thickness of the board, in our case: 1: 0.022 = 45.45 m 2.
But it should not be forgotten that not the whole lining area is useful. 
What sizes of lining to consider to determine the effective area of the board?
The overall dimensions of wooden lining are regulated by the specifications of the manufacturers. But to calculate the usable area, you should pay attention to the shape of the board, we are interested in the spike. So, if the lining width is 160 mm and the spike is 8 mm, then the working part is 160-8 = 152 mm.
Let's take as an example the dimensions: a paneling 3 m long, its useful width is 0.152 m. We calculate the useful area of one board: 3x0.152 = 0.456 m 2.
As for the length of the board, here there are some nuances in the calculation of the usable area. The higher the grade of lining, the smaller the scraps, and if you buy premium material, it will take no more than 0.1% to cut, and if you use a low quality board whose cost is lower, the waste will be 10 percent or more, and in fact the price on the lining will be the same, and even cheaper. 
What is the thickness of wooden lining, where and which is better to use?
The thickness of the lining is regulated by GOST for domestic manufacturers, according to which the thinnest board is from 12 mm and more, but not thicker than 25 mm. More stringent rules are provided for DIN for eurolining of wood, the thickness of the dies can be 19, 16 and 13 mm.
We emphasize that boards with a thickness of 12 to 16 mm are recommended to be used for interior plating, exterior finish held thicker boards. The thinner the board, the closer to one another to place the battens, the average distance is 300-500 mm. For fixing 12 mm dies on the ceiling, it can simply be lathing, but the wall should be sheathed with plywood, and only the wall panel can be mounted on it, if this is not done, the slats are simply sold from minor mechanical effects. 
How to calculate correctly, how many packages are in a cubic meter, and how much area can you sheathe with a lining pack?
We take the standard dimensions of eurolining as a basis: 96 mm total width, 88 mm working width, 12.5 mm thickness, 6000 mm length. We calculate the useful area of 1 whip: 0.088x6 = 0.528 m2. One pack - 10 pieces, so this amount of material can be sheathed: 0.528x10 = 5.28 m 2.
To understand how much lining in a package, you should find the net volume: 0.096x6x0.0125 (plate thickness in m) x10 number in a pack = 0.072 m 3. Thus, in one cubic meter: 1: 0.072 = 13.89 packs.
And we already know that one package can be finished with 5.28 m, therefore, one cubic meter will be enough to sheath 13.89x5.28 = approximately 73 sq. M. 
What role does the lining length play, how to choose the right board for the right length?
The standard length of lining is 2, 3 and 6 m, according to European standards it can be even 0.5 m. From practice we can say that the most convenient length is 3 m, such material is easy to transport and store. A 6 m board is suitable for finishing long rooms, for example, a 5.8 m loggia, you can buy a 3 meter whip, but then you have to make a joint.
Often inside the walls are sheathed and the wall paneling is laid vertically, it is advisable to use whips of 3 m here. But when calculating, it should also be taken into account that the ceiling height is approximately 2.5-2.7 m, significant trimming remains, more than 10% of the total volume. If you want to save money, it is recommended to buy a docking element and 2-meter strips, you can dock the wall paneling with a diagonal or chess pattern. 
What is the width of the wall paneling?
Today, the market offers a huge range of profiled strips, their width varies from 80 to 200 mm. It is very important to pay attention to the ratio of the width and thickness of the logs, so the best physicomechanical characteristics of the material, whose parameters correspond to the ratio of 1: 6. For example, the width of wooden lining is 150 mm, which means that its optimum thickness is 150: 6 = 25 mm.
It should be noted that the thickness of the slats affects the aesthetics of the room. For large rooms it is better to buy wide strips, and vice versa. But if the goal is to visually raise the ceiling, then you need to use narrow whips, and fasten them vertically.
It is better if the useful width of the wall panel is a multiple of the height of the room, if the paneling is horizontal, and the width if the room is sheathed vertically, thus, it will not be necessary to adjust the last bar. 
Thin plating wooden plankhaving a thorn-groove, called clapboard. Nowadays, this type of lumber is widely used in construction, which is argued by several advantages of this natural material.
Despite the large selection finishing materials in the form of drywall and plastic, the paneling has not lost its popularity among developers. Covering such a board does not take much time and effort, and the result can turn out just great.
Lining characteristics
For finishing of houses inside, they often use standard wall paneling, soft calm wall paneling.
The main difference is that the standard chamfer (edge) is straight, the software has rounded.
This is a separate type of lining, whose thickness is from 20mm and width from 140mm, is used for exterior finish houses.By production material:
1. conifers:
- pine
- larch
2. deciduous trees
- aspen
- alder
- linden oak
Release of lining
regulates GOST 8242-88 and Western European standard DIN 68-126 / 86, TU.
Before selling, the manufacturer or supplier determines the quality of the lining, that is, sorts the product and assigns the grade.
Lining is divided into classes and grades
Most often clapboard sheathe warmed balconies, baths and saunas inside. Depending on the room where it is used, the wood from which the paneling was made is selected. So valuable breeds of mahogany or cedar are used for the manufacture of expensive material, which is used very rarely in the interiors of expensive cottages, hotels, restaurants and other premises. The design of the building, decorated with such high-quality wall paneling, is simply stunning.
For trim balconies and baths is better to take this construction materialmade from linden. The fact is that this wood, when heated, does not emit resin, as it does in pine, so it is ideal for bathing rooms. According to its quality characteristics, the wall paneling is divided into four groups. The most qualitative and expensive of them is the Extra group. In this material, there is a complete absence of knots, which makes it ideal for facing any rooms. This is followed by groups A, B and C.
Sorting is based on the following criteria:
- Humidity is allowed 9-14%
- The quantity and quality of the knots (fallen out, dropped out, "inanimate", "live")
- Fungal lesions of wood ("blue", etc.)
- Compliance with the specified geometrical parameters: bending, winging (derivative - the fit of the boards)
- Cracks
- Wormholes
- Wood species
- Cutting direction (radial or tangential)
Installation of lining
In the process of mounting the wall panel, special tools are used, such as a screwdriver and a hammer drill. And it is attached with carnations or screws. Before you do the lining, you need to give the material at least a day to stay indoors. Lining, as a rule, is mounted on the sheathing material, from the installation of which they begin installation. It is mounted using a level and a plumb, so that the lining is ideally even in the future. Between the crate and clapboard you can lay a layer of insulation.
Finishing work clapboard lead to:
- nails
- screws
- clamps
Finishing can be carried out:
- horizontally
- vertically
Kleimmery photo mounting
When installing in places where high humidity will be better to use galvanized nails, with a minimum cap. For interior use dry lining.
Before you start facing, you need to measure the material and adjust it in height. To fix the board you need to start from the corner of the room, and then continue around the perimeter. After finishing the trim, you need to process the material with varnish, choosing it according to the color that best fits the overall interior of the room and satisfies the owner's requests for the design of the room. This natural environmentally friendly material, will serve its owner for more than a dozen years. As for the bath or sauna, here it is better not to coat the walls with varnish.
The cost of lining
The price for the clapboard is calculated:
- per m2
- for 1cc
To calculate the budget for future work it is necessary to determine:
- with an area of sq.m.
- with a grade (class) of lining
It is from these two components that the final amount will be added up.
Lining cost from the producer (class "Extra") - 670 rub. per m 2 from aspen.
The cost of coniferous lining (grade 1) costs 210 rub / m 2
The cost of coniferous lining (grade 2) costs 180 rub / m 2
The cost of coniferous lining (grade 3) costs 150 rub / m 2
The price of lining of cedar about 1,400 / m 2 (Extra grade)
The price of lining of alder from 750 - 1 400 rubles / m 2 (depending on the variety)
The price for 1 grade of coniferous lining (pine) starts about t 14.000 rub. for 1cc
Price for 2nd grade coniferous lining (pine) from 12.000 rub. for 1 cu.
The price for Extra class lining may start from 20,000 rubles per 1 cubic meter
Prices are exploratory and approximate.

We thank you for your attention
Today, there are some rules for the purchase of lumber, most often, buyers are not very happy with these rules and do not always use them. The fact is that most of the buyers alone cannot correctly calculate the amount of material they need, for calculations of this type there is a table: how many cubic boards there are, according to which correct calculations can be made and not overpay for a “stock” that the consumer will not end up with need
How much material is one cubic meter
To correctly calculate the volume of products you purchase, you need to know some of the nuances in its measurement. The principle of calculating the cubic capacity of all materials from a tree is, in principle, the same, no matter what kind of acquired wood and its grade.
- From the very beginning, it is necessary to measure such as length, thickness and not to forget about the width of one panel. We will give an example in order to make it easier for you to calculate. So, the parameters of a single product, given in the example, are equal: 16x15x6000, everything is indicated in millimeters.
- We calculate the volume of one product, for this it is necessary to convert units of measure to meters, we get: 0.016 × 0.15 × 6 = 0.01444, the result is in cubic meters.
- We divide the cubic meter by the result obtained in the previous paragraph, we get: 69.44 (this is the rounded result).
Important! Follow the clear instructions so that your calculations, regarding how many cubed pieces, are correct. Note that sellers may cheat a little in the rounding process, and the purchase price may be slightly higher.
How many cubic meters squares
In order not to overpay and do not buy the panels separately, it is necessary to know how much cubed area contains which will be covered by the material. This result will depend solely on such a parameter as thickness, and, accordingly, can be anything, depending on the material you buy. What is cubic capacity, you ask? In order for you to know the area that will be covered, it means that we need to figure out how many cubic meters of cubic meters there are.
- Measure the thickness if the product is wood panel, then the parameter will be from 13 to 26 millimeters.
- We translate the result into meters, because the volume criteria are measured in this unit. If the product is 15 millimeters thick, then the result of the volume will be 0.015 m
- We divide the cube by the result obtained earlier, total: 1: 0.015 = 66.7 squares.
Note! If your knowledge in mathematics can be assessed as average, then you can easily calculate in your mind how much lining there is in 1 cube.
The amount of material for finishing
To date, wood panels are one of the most sought-after and popular materials for finishing the most various rooms. To start finishing work, you must first calculate how much material you need for construction work. Calculations must be made accurately, so as not to buy excess material.
Interior decoration
To determine the amount of lining for finishing indoors, it is necessary to divide the quadrature into separate areas. Thus, you can calculate the plane in the form of a simple figure - a rectangle. A large role is played by the length of the panels, because it can be different, so you need to measure the length of all the existing segments.
- We measure the width and, of course, the length of the finished room. You also need to know the area of the upper surface, that is, the ceiling, in the event that you are going to finish it and clapboard.
- Determine the length and height of the wall to find out its total area. Usually the rooms have two opposite walls identical to the arcs of a friend, so the size of one wall is enough for an exact calculation.
- Summing up the numbers. Do not forget to take away the square of the openings in the room or room, to make it easier to present the whole calculation, you can watch the video.
Tip! It is advisable to add another ten percent to all the results obtained, because in this case you simply cannot do without waste. Even if you take into account the length of the product, all the same, the waste has a place to be.
Facade finish
If you decide to decorate the facade of the building, for example, to make, then the calculations will be similar. If you will be finishing yourself and with your own hands, the only problem in the construction process may be the calculation of the area of the gable.
We will sort by points:
- The sheathed area is determined in the same way as internal calculations.
- To calculate the area of the gable, you need to multiply the length of the base by its height and then divide it in half.
- We add all the results obtained and do not forget to subtract from this amount the area of all openings.
Important! Do not forget that when installing a longitudinal spike is clearly included in the groove of the previous strip, which means that you only need to take into account when calculating the width of the useful.
In addition
Now you know how many boards are in a lining cube and the number of meters in a cubic meter, and this is already 50% of success. Accurate calculations guarantee you savings in the purchase of material and the elimination of problems when installing the wall paneling.
Factors affecting the mass of the material
Consider what factors depends on how much the cube lining. First of all, it is a type of wood, it is also worth considering the moisture content of lumber. The table shows the comparative figures:
Total
Calculate the amount of material, area and other parameters will help you the above instructions. You do not even need a table: how many lining boards in a cube, because you can make calculations yourself according to your parameters.
Lining is so familiar and sweet to the eye that every Russian peasant as a gentleman who "remembers the date, but forgets about age" can close his eyes and easily recall her darling to the last bitch and barb, but will surely forget the dimensions. Save this article to your browser bookmarks so that the tables are always at hand.
Do you know?
In guests there is no such term as "lining". Official documents operate with the term "cladding" or "cladding board."
A common and more familiar to us name lining came from the railway cars with plating from separate boards tightly adjacent to each other. Material with this type of compound was liked by artisans, and therefore today it is used for external and interior decoration everywhere.
Currently, the production of this finishing material is regulated by the following standards: Russian standard GOST 8242-88 and German standard DIN 68-126 / 86, TU. The latter imposes more stringent requirements on quality and grade.
How to decipher the label manufacturer
We read the marking as follows:
- Plating mark (see details below)
- Sort lining (see table below)
- Thickness x Width x Length
- Sometimes manufacturers specify the number of pieces in a package.
The example of the symbol of eurolining:
Grade C 12,5x96 (88) x2000 mm 10pcs. in unitary enterprise.
Grade C Lining, 12.5 mm thick, 96 mm thick, 2000 mm long. In the package 10pcs.
Example conventional lining in accordance with GOST:
О-3-13x120x4000-GOST 8242-88
This means - Cladding of brand O-3, 13 mm thick, 120 mm wide, 4000 mm long, manufactured according to GOST 8242-88.
Sizes of standard lining in accordance with GOST
Classical lining, in common “collective farm woman” is regulated by state standard specifications with the name "sheathing board" of the following sizes and sections:
Wall paneling O-1
Wall paneling O-2 (1st version)
Wall paneling O-2 (2nd version)
Wall paneling O-3 (1st version)
Wall paneling O-3 (2nd version)
Wall paneling O-4
It is made of various wood species: pine, spruce (the cheapest are coniferous), birch, alder, linden, aspen, ash, oak, larch, cedar.
The evolution of the size of the cladding boards has gone beyond the limits set by state standards and today it is easy to find products for sale in the following sizes: thickness from 12 to 25 mm; width — up to 150 mm; length - up to 6000 mm.
Dimensions of eurolining
It is made according to the Western European standard DIN 68126/86. The key difference from the domestic standard version discussed above is the presence of longitudinal ventilation slots (see photo under this paragraph) on the reverse side, which work as stress compensators arising from changes in temperature and humidity, and also contribute to condensate drainage due to air circulation.
Sizes according to European standards:
Thickness - 12.5-14-16-19-21 mm;
Width - 80-100-110-120-138 mm;
Lining thickness - calm for internal use - 12.5-16 mm,
For external - 18.5-22.5 mm.
Length gradation at the discretion of the manufacturer.
Packaged in packs of 10 pcs.
Sizes lining calm
Similar to the euro track, the wall panel is made with longitudinal slots on the back side.
Thickness - 12.5, 13.5, 14 mm
Width - 120, 140 mm
Length - 2-6 m.
Grades - A, B, C

This type of lining is made by pressing wood chips at a high temperature.
How not to mug when buying
If you buy material in a class lower than “Extra”, and this is most likely the case, then it is necessary to lay losses on the marriage, which will necessarily be present closer to the middle of the pack.
Options:
1) To get lining with a stock of 10-20%
2) Do not be lazy to open the package upon receipt and require the replacement of defective lining in accordance with the grade you paid for: A, B, C.
How many lining cubes. A simple method of calculation according to the formula of mathematics of the 5th grade
From my own experience, I can say that for domestic needs, 1m3 of lining is enough for about 75-80m2, taking into account cuts, it will be possible to sheathe about 70m2 of “usable area”. Naturally, this dimensional reference point is very approximate and I recommend that you perform the necessary calculations on your own, taking into account your individual task.
Now you make sure that it is very easy. Any search engine will kindly remind the volume formula of a rectangular parallelepiped from mathematics of the 5th class:
Let our lining has dimensions: Width 85
mmThickness 18 mmThe length 3m
We consider the volume of one board V1 = 0,018m * 0,085m * 3m = 0.00459 m3 Quantity in one cube, pcs N = 1 / 0.00459 = 218 pcs
Attention: In the calculations we use the “usable” width of the wall paneling, without taking into account the size of the spike-groove connection, and the wallboard of the wall paneling will be packed back to back.
To calculate the area that we can sheathe 1 m3 of lining, we consider the area of one board S1 = 0.085m * 3m = 0.255 m2 Take the number of boards calculated above and multiply by the area of one board S = 218 pcs * 0.255 m2 = 56 m2
Subtract 10% for trimming: 56 m2-6 m2 = 50 m2
Total 1 cube board size 85 * 18 * 3000 mm enough for a wall covering area 50 m2.
