Carpet Cut Area (CC) in square meters:

A carpet cut calculator helps determine the area of carpet needed for a specific space by multiplying the length and width of the room. This is crucial for avoiding material wastage and ensuring accurate purchases for flooring projects.

Formula

The formula for calculating the carpet cut area is:
CC = L × W
Where:

• CC is the carpet cut area in square meters.
• L is the length of the space in meters.
• W is the width of the space in meters.

How to Use

1. Measure the length and width of the room in meters.
2. Enter these values into the calculator fields labeled “Length” and “Width.”
3. Click the “Calculate” button to get the result.
4. The carpet cut area will be displayed in square meters.

Example

If the length of a room is 5 meters and the width is 4 meters:

• Using the formula CC = L × W,
• CC = 5 × 4 = 20 square meters.
  This means you will need 20 square meters of carpet to cover the room.
