Planning outdoor projects

Outdoor calculators use different measurements: retaining wall blocks are counted by courses, decking and fencing by individual units, gravel by volume, and drains by excavation and pipe length. Irrigation Water Usage estimates scheduled gallons from planted area, effective rainfall, assumed efficiency and measured flow; Sprinkler Installation instead counts pipes, heads and valves.
