Drywall Calculator API

healthy 3,893 Subscribers

Drywall (plasterboard) material-estimation maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The sheets endpoint computes how many boards a wall or ceiling needs — the area (given directly, or as perimeter × height, or length × width) divided by the sheet area, with a waste allowance — and the number of screws (about 32 per standard sheet). The compound endpoint estimates the joint compound in kilograms and the joint tape in metres for taping and finishing the boarded area, with adjustable per-square-metre factors for your product and number of coats. The cost endpoint totals the project from the sheets and their price plus the compound and tape. The standard 2.4 × 1.2 m board is assumed unless you override it. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for construction, renovation and trade app developers, drywall and plastering estimators, and builder and retailer tools. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is drywall material estimation; for insulation R-values use a U-value API and for wall paint use a paint API.

Caulk Coverage API

Caulk and sealant coverage maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the linear-feet-per-tube and how-many-tubes numbers a builder, glazier or DIYer buys sealant by. A bead of caulk is essentially a thin cylinder, so the coverage endpoint works out the feet a cartridge lays from the bead width: volume per foot ≈ (π/4 × width²) × 12 inches, and a standard 10.1 fl oz cartridge (18.2 in³) lays about 30 feet of a quarter-inch bead, 13 feet of a fat three-eighths or 55 of a fine three-sixteenths — pass cartridge_oz for sausage packs or 28-oz tubes, and a tube count to total it. The tubes endpoint runs it backwards: cartridges needed = (joint length × a waste factor) ÷ feet per cartridge, rounded up, so a 100-foot run of quarter-inch bead with 10 % waste takes four tubes. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for construction, glazing, weatherproofing and home-improvement app developers, material-estimator and shopping-list tools, and contractor software. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Inches and feet; estimates — tooling and waste vary. Live, nothing stored. 2 compute endpoints.

ADA Ramp API

ADA wheelchair-ramp maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the run, landing and slope numbers a builder or accessibility planner sizes a ramp by. The rule the ADA fixes is 1 inch of rise per 12 of run, a maximum 8.33 % slope, so the ramp endpoint turns a rise into the ramp: run = rise × 12 (or × 16 / × 20 for a gentler grade if you have the room), plus the level landings the code requires — a 5-foot landing top and bottom and another between runs whenever the rise exceeds 30 inches — and the total length end to end, so a 24-inch rise needs a 24-foot run and 34 feet overall, while a 36-inch rise breaks into two runs with an intermediate landing for 51 feet. The fit endpoint answers the real-world question: does a ramp for this rise fit the run you have? It returns the minimum run an ADA 1:12 ramp needs, whether your space is enough, and the slope you would actually get if you forced it in — flagging when that exceeds 8.33 % and you need a switchback or a lower rise. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for construction, accessibility, home-modification and contractor app developers, ramp-estimator and code-check tools, and building software. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Confirm against current ADA and local code. Live, nothing stored. 2 compute endpoints.

Deck Builder API

Deck-building maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the board, joist and fastener counts a homeowner or contractor needs to material out a rectangular deck. The boards endpoint turns the deck size into a real shopping list: rows = deck width ÷ (board width + gap), rounded up, so a 16 ft × 12 ft deck with a 5.5-inch board face (a 5/4×6) and a 1/8-inch gap needs 26 rows; boards run the length, each row takes one 16 ft board, and a 10 % waste allowance brings it to 29 boards plus the linear footage and the deck area. The joists endpoint frames it: joists are spaced along the length, so count = ⌊length ÷ spacing⌋ + 1 — thirteen joists at 16-inch on-center (seventeen at 12-inch for stronger or diagonal decking), each spanning the width, plus two rim joists and a ledger as total framing linear feet. The fasteners endpoint counts the screws: every decking row crosses every joist once and is fastened with two face screws there, so a 16×12 deck takes 26 × 13 × 2 = 676 screws, about 744 with waste — or one hidden clip per intersection. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for construction, contractor, home-improvement, building-materials and renovation app developers, deck-estimator and takeoff tools, and lumber-yard calculators. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. US units (feet/inches). Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. Rectangular decks; for indoor floor area use a flooring API.

Masonry Estimating API

Masonry estimating maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the brick, block and mortar counts a bricklayer, builder or estimator works to. The brick endpoint computes how many bricks a wall needs from its area (or length × height in feet): bricks per square foot = 144 / ((brick length + joint) × (brick height + joint)), so a standard modular brick with a 3/8-inch mortar joint works out to the well-known 6.86 bricks per square foot — a 100 ft² wall is 686 bricks, plus a waste allowance and the mortar bags (about 7 per 1000 bricks). The block endpoint does the same for concrete masonry units: a standard 16×8-inch CMU with a 3/8-inch joint is 1.125 blocks per square foot, with roughly 2.5 mortar bags per 100 blocks. Both endpoints take custom unit face dimensions and joint thickness, add a configurable waste percentage and round up to whole units. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for construction, masonry-contractor, building-supply and home-improvement app developers, takeoff and material-estimating tools, and trade calculators. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Imperial units (inches and square feet). Live, nothing stored. 2 compute endpoints. This is brick/block and mortar estimating; for poured-concrete volume use a concrete API and for drywall use a drywall API.
