Adhesive is bought by weight but applied by area, at a spread rate that varies widely by glue type and joint. Under-applying starves the joint and weakens the bond; over-applying wastes costly adhesive and causes squeeze-out. This tool calculates exactly how much glue a job needs from the bond area, number of glued faces, spread rate and a waste allowance, then converts that into packs and cost.
