Sod Takeoff (Slabs and Pallets)
The sod order from a lawn area: ordered area with a cut/edge waste allowance (in ft^2 and square yards), then slabs (sold by the piece) and pallets (sold by the skid). Slab and pallet coverage vary by farm (defaults ~10 / ~450 ft^2, editable); a material takeoff, not a site-prep or establishment plan.
Formula and source
order_ft2 = lawn_ft2 x (1 + waste_pct/100); order_syd = order_ft2 / 9; slabs = ceil(order_ft2 / slab_ft2); pallets = ceil(order_ft2 / pallet_ft2).
