How many sq ft is 11 feet x 12 feet?
To find square feet simply multiply length times width. Thus: 11' X 12' =132 square feet. If you needed to figure the amount of sheet rock to cover four walls in one room and the room is 11' X 12' with 8' ceiling height your equation would look like this: 11 x 12 x 4= 528 square feet Now divide the total square feet (528) by the amount of coverage one sheet of drywall offers. ie; one 4 x 8 sheet of drywall covers 32 square feet of space. 528/32=16.5 You would need 16.5 sheets to cover all the wall space with 4' x 8' sheets of drywall.

How much drywall do you need for a room that's 1000 sq ft?
You will need three more bits of information. 1. How high are the walls. 2. What is the length of the room. 3. What is the width of the room. Let me give you an example. Height of walls = 8 ft. Length = 50 ft. Width = 20 ft. Each piece of drywall is 8' X 4'. In this case, the height of the walls exactly matches the height of the drywall; so you won't have to make any cuts in that dimension. Figure out how many sheets you will need for the 50' walls. 50' / 4' = 12 1/2 pieces of drywall. There are two of those 50' walls; so multiply by 2. 12 1/2 X 2 = 25 pieces. Now for the short walls. 20' / 4' = 5 pieces of drywall. Again, there are 2 short walls, so multiply by 2. 5 X 2 = 10 pieces of dry wall. Add what you need for the long walls and short walls. 25 + 10 = 35 drywall sheets. Answer: 35 drywall sheets.

How do you drywall round corners?
The best way to drywall a curved or radius corner is to wet the drywall. If possible lay the drywall over a form that matches the radius to be covered. use a garden sprayer or watering can an wet the drywall. It will bend to match the form before your eyes. Let it dry out. It will stay in that shape and will easily be applied to the curve. Tighter radii may require using a thinner drywall like 1/4". Use the same method, but apply two layers if the rest of the job is 1/2" drywall
