How do you work out how much liner you need?

Keith Holmes

Use the following calculation:

Length + (depth x 2) + required overlap = total length of liner required

Width + (depth x 2) + required overlap = total width of liner required

If your hole is 10ft long by 8ft wide by 6ft deep and you need an overlap of 6in all the way around, your liner should be:

Length = 10ft + (6ft x 2 = 12ft) + 1ft (6in overlap each side) = 23ft long

Width = 8ft + (6ft x 2 = 12ft) + 1ft (6in overlap each side) = 21ft wide

If your pond has ledges, or an uneven bottom, take a direct measurement. Lay a piece of string or long rope tape measure down one side of the pond, along the bottom, then up the next side. This will give you the exact measurement for the amount of liner required.

I really like this quantitative analysis of pond construction.I will save this formula in my computer and i will use it when I really need this mathematical work.Recently I am searching for a good company who provided services about internet marketing because I want to optimize my online store and also want to know how I can accept credit card online because I want to sell my fish internationally.I also need a software which keep backup of my all online data.
