Stone veneer corners vs. flats — subtract corner area from the flat order

Corner units are sold by the linear foot but each foot also covers ≈0.75 sq ft of flat wall — so the calculator subtracts corner LF × k from your flats instead of double-buying.

A wall elevation for an adhered stone veneer take-off. The left vertical strip is corner units (sold by the linear foot) and the rest is flat units (sold by the square foot). Because each linear foot of L-shaped corner also wraps onto the flat wall and covers about 0.75 square feet of it, the flat order is net wall area minus corner linear feet times a conversion factor k. k is 0.75 for Boral and Coronado, 0.67 for distributors, and 0.50 for Eldorado and M-Rock. Larger corner profiles cover more flat area. — Source: Boral / Coronado 0.75 · distributors 0.67 · Eldorado / M-Rock 0.50 sq ft per LF
