Measure your area to be paved to determine quantity of<br />
pavers required. This area is simply calculated by Length<br />
(m) x Width (m) = area (m2) for basic square or rectangular<br />
spaces (m= metres).<br />
For odd shapes, break your area into sections.<br />
For triangular areas<br />
1) 5m x 3m = 15m 2<br />
2) 4m x 2m = 8m 2<br />
3) 3m x 4m = 12m 2<br />
Total = 35m 2<br />
1/2 x base (m) x height (m) = area (m 2)<br />
e.g. 1/2 x 4m x 3m = 6m 2<br />

Manual Retaining Wall Calculation<br />
Measure your area of the wall to determine the quantity<br />
of blocks required. This area is simply calculated by<br />
Length (m) x Height (m) = Area (m2) for basic square<br />
or rectangular spaces (where m = meters).<br />
Step 1: Measure the area of the retaining wall.<br />
To do this you will need:<br />
– The length of the wall.<br />
– The height at both ends of the wall.<br />
This area is simply calculated by length x height for basic<br />
square or rectangle spaces. For odd shapes break your area<br />
down into several sections. For triangular areas use half<br />
base x height to calculate your area.<br />
Step 2: Increase your total area by 10% to allow for cuts,<br />
part blocks & breakages.<br />

(5) For ease of maintenance sealing of pavers and retaining walls is recommended.<br />
