How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Number of stations = 6, Station width = 3, Station depth = 2, Mat width = 3 = 6 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Total mats needed
    Total mats needed
    6 = 6
  3. Calculate Total mat cost
    Total mat cost = totalMats * costPerMat
    270 = $270
  4. Calculate Total area to cover
    Total area to cover = areaPerStation * numStations
    72 = 72
  5. Calculate Mats per station
    Mats per station
    1 = 1
