Fabric Consumption

We have need to measure:-

Mesurement procedure of short Sleeve tee:-

Parameter	Given	Estimated with sewing allowance
1) Chest	96cm	102cm
2) HPS	65cm	70cm
3) sleeve length	20cm	25cm
4) Arm hole	46cm	49cm
5) Neck	58cm	61cm
6) Neck width	2+2=4cm	7cm
7) Bottom hem	2cm

*Note-Normally Allowance is taken around 1.5 cm but it is not fixed, because this Allowance is depending on fabric type. Like Cotton, Lycra, Viscose etc.

Formula(Mordern concept):

------------------------------

1)CPD(Consumption per dozen)  =   Length  x Width  x 12(dozen)  x  GSM(gram per square meter) / 10000000   kg
Formula(Old concept):

2)CPD(Consumption per dozen)  =   Length  x Width  x  GSM(gram per square meter) / 1550 / 1000 / 9 x  12(dozen)     kg

Consumption calculation of short Sleeve tee:-

A)CPD(body)      = &nbsp&nbsp  L  x W  x 12(dozen)  x  GSM / 10000000   kg
                            =  70  x 102  x 12  x  150 / 10000000   kg
                            =  1.28   kg
B)CPD(Sleeve)  =     L  x W  x 12(dozen)  x 2(pair)  x  GSM / 10000000   kg
                           =  25  x 49  x 12  x 2  x  150 / 10000000   kg
                           =  0.44   kg
C)CPD(Neck)     = &nbsp&nbsp  L  x W  x 12(dozen)  x  GSM / 10000000   kg
                           =  61  x 7  x 12  x  180 / 10000000   kg
                           =  0.09   kg
So, Total CPD     = &nbsp&nbsp  (A  + B  + C)
                           =  (1.28  + 0.44  + 0.09 )   kg
                           =  1.81   kg / per dozen 
Actual CPD        = &nbsp&nbsp Total CPD  + 7%  Wastage
                           =  (1.81  + 7%)  kg
                           =  1.94   kg / per dozen 

So, the fabric consumption for men's T-shirt is 1.94 kg per dozen.

Consumption calculation of Woven Basic Pant:-

If Fabric width                      =       60

1)Half Waist Curcumas        = &nbsp&nbsp  46cm  + 8(SA)  = 54cm
2)Front Raise                       = &nbsp&nbsp  28cm include waist belt  + 8(SA)  = 36cm
3)Half Thighs Curcumas     = &nbsp&nbsp  36cm  + 6(SA)  = 42cm
4)Inseam Length                 = &nbsp&nbsp  82cm  + 3(SA)  = 85cm

Consumption formula:

    (Half waist curcumas x front rise) x 2 + (Half thigh curcumas x Inseam length) x 4 / 36 / 59 + wastes % = YDS/PC

    *Note;-In case of size measurement in CM to divide by 6.45 (Sq cm) otherwise not

Consumption Formula for Woven Shirt:

    {1/2 Chest x (CB Length + Sleeve Length)} x 2 /36 /Fabric width + Wastage% = Yards/Pcs.

Yoke:

A shaped piece fabric in a garment, fitted about or below the neck and shoulders, from which the rest of the garment hangs. It can be split in two, called the “split-yoke.”

Formula:-                              

Required fabric      =       (Yoke length +allowance) (yoke width +allowance)/36                                                                                                                44

Total consumption for one garment

= 0.541+0.079+0.562+0.68+0.05+0.159+0.032

= 2.100yds/ per garment

Per dozen

= 2.100 ×12

= 25.20/dozen (yards per dozen) + 5%

= {25.20 ×5 / 100} + 25.20

= 1.26 + 25.20

=26.46 yards

Trouser consumption

Formula:-

[{(Waist X Front rise) X 2} + {Thigh size X Inseam length} X 4]/36/Fabric width + Wastage %

= [{(31 X 23) X 2} + {(25.5 X 61)} X 4]/36/59 + wastage 5 %.

= 3.60 + .05

= 3.65 Yards/Pc

Consumption from Marker

Knit fabric consumption from marker:

    Marker (for 9 pc marker) = {(Length x Width) x12x GSM}/ (1550x1000x9) + Wastage% = Kg/ dozen

Woven fabric consumption from marker:

    Marker length     = 5yds 13"

    Fabric width          = 43" or 42.5"

    Shipment quantity =1000 dozen

    For 5pcs marker,

5yds 13"                   = 5pcs

5yds 13/36               = 5pcs

5.36yds                    = 5pcs

5.36/5 x 12               = 12.86 yards/dozen

    Fabric required     = 1000 dozen x 12.86 yards + 5%

                                =13503 yards
