Set out flights, turns and baluster positions.
From concrete volume to reinforcing bar schedules and reo mesh coverage.
Plan decking-board courses and estimate brickwork or blockwork.
Cover a roof slope and set out a rising wall.
Estimate paint, gravel, soil and asphalt quantities from measured dimensions.
Find a diagonal, repeat a spacing or transfer a level.
Start with the measurements, then see the quantities and dimensions they produce.
One rectangular slab with a chosen allowance.
One slab, one layer. A runs along the length; B across it.
Between posts, with gaps at both ends.
Choose a tool and use metric units or feet and inches. Match each field to the dimension on its diagram.
Read geometry, quantities and allowances together. Calculate after changing inputs so the result reflects the values you intend to use.
Keep your measurements with the result. Reopen a saved calculation, change the inputs and save the update or a separate version.
Keep the measurements with a named calculation. Share the calculated result when you need to discuss the job.
Revisit saved work on your iPhone. Keep the original until you choose to update it, or save a separate version.
Convert units and do everyday arithmetic alongside your construction calculations, all on your iPhone.
Units are part of the calculation. Check the unit beside an input and result, especially when moving between millimetres, metres, cubic yards and US tons.
Calculate free here, read the guides, or continue in Pro² for iPhone.
Pro² helps with geometry, setting out and material estimates. Dimensions, cover, laps, density and allowances still come from the job. Structural design, product instructions and local requirements need their own checks.
