Fabric Consumption Calculation:
Apparel weight calculation for
❏ Apparel weight calculation
size L
= [{T.L + S.L + (2× H.A) + (2 × S.A)} × (1/2 Chest + S.A)] × G.S.M × 2/20000
= [{50.8 + 0 + (2 * 0.5) + ( 2*1)} × (½* 53.34 + 1)] × 160 × 2/20000 Where;
= 23.82 gms. T.L= Total Length,
= 0.023 kg S.A= Seam Allowance,
❏ Round neck collar weight calculation H.A= Hem Allowance,
= {(Neck round + S.A) × (Collar width + S.A) × G.S.M × 2}/10000 S.L= Sleeve Length.
= {(27.94+1) * 160 * 2)}/20,000
= 0.46 gms Let,
= 0.00046 kg Seam Allowance= 1cm,
Hem Allowance= 0.5cm.
So, apparel weight stands at = (0.0238+0.00046)Kg = 0.024kg
