Activities/Assessment:

Sample Problem No.1

The walls in an auditorium were proposed to be treated in order to minimize the sound vibration inside
the facility. The proposed material to be used is ordinary plywood and gypsum boards to be laminated
to the plywood. Determine the quantity of the standard size gypsum board and plywood needed for the
sound treatment of the walls. The dimension of the walls are as follows:

1. 4.00 meters in height by 40.50 meters in length. (left and right)

Area of walls = height x length

4m x 40.50m = 162m2

Size of plywood = 1.2m x 2.4m

Area of plywood = 1.2m x 2.4m

= 2.88m2

Quantity= area of walls/ area of plywood

162m2/2.88m2 = 56.25

57 pcs left and 57 pcs right

2. 4.00 meters in height by 3.55 meters in length ( 2 sides)

Sample Problem No.2

Determine the quantity of the needed for a ceiling with a dimension of 38.50 meters in length by 45.30
meters in width.
