How do you work out square footage for a floor coating?

Flooring
Estimating & Takeoff

Epoxy and resinous coatings are ordered by coverage rate against square footage, and over-ordering a two-part product is money you cannot return. Area mode on the T1R Range returns 250 square feet from two laser shots wall to wall, with nobody dragging a tape across an empty slab. The coverage calculation runs off a measurement rather than an estimate.
