Construction temporary fence gates calculator

Calculate whole panels by run and total whole panels with your own figures.

Your numbers

Use the units shown. Results update as you change valid inputs.

Use whole panels by run and total whole panels to compare changes to your inputs. The method and limits below explain the scope.

Calculation method

Calculation method

Whole panels by run

J([[r[0],math.floor(r[1]/b),r[1]%b] for r in a])

Total whole panels

sum(math.floor(r[1]/b) for r in a)

Gate count

c

Residual boundary gaps (m)

sum(r[1]%b for r in a)

Symbols and units
a
JSON Boundary runs net of gates [ID,length m]
b
Standard fence panel width (m)
c
Explicit gates to procure (count)

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Calculation steps and notation

sum(list) adds all entries in the list.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • Run lengths must already exclude approved gate openings. Residual gaps require an externally specified infill; calculator never treats an uncovered gap as safe. Supported limits: All numeric inputs must be finite. Only the explicitly described mathematical scenario is supported.
Are these inputs private?
