How to Calculate Shingle Weight?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Shingle Weight.
- First, determine the length of the shingle (ft).
- Next, determine the width of the shingle (ft).
- Next, gather the formula from above = SHW = LS * WS * 2.75.
- Finally, calculate the Shingle Weight.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
length of the shingle (ft) = 40
width of the shingle (ft) = 20
SHW = LS * WS * 2.75 = ?
