A tool designed to estimate the required amount of seal coat material for a given asphalt surface area, considers factors such as area dimensions and application rate. For example, inputting the dimensions of a driveway and the desired gallons-per-square-foot application rate will yield the total volume of sealant necessary to complete the job.
Employing a calculation aid for seal coating projects ensures accurate material procurement, minimizing waste and preventing the possibility of under-ordering. Historically, professionals relied on manual calculations which were prone to errors. Utilizing a specialized aid increases efficiency and reduces costs associated with inaccurate estimations.
