Understanding Construction Area Units

Marla: A standard plot size in Pakistan and India. 1 Marla = 225 sq ft (varies by city).
Sikra: A local unit used in some regions, typically 1 Sikra ≈ 1000–1250 sq ft.
Square Feet: The most common unit for building floor area.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much steel is needed for a 10 Marla house?

For a standard 10‑Marla (2250 sq ft) double‑storey house, approximately 1800–2200 kg of steel is required depending on the design and steel quality. Use the default 80 kg/100 sq ft as a starting point.

Can I change the steel ratio?

Yes, the "Steel per 100 sq ft" input is fully editable. If your engineer recommends 100 kg per 100 sq ft, just type it in and the results update instantly.

What is the Sikra unit?

Sikra (also called Sarka or Sarsai) is a traditional land measurement used in some parts of Pakistan. The tool lets you set 1 Sikra = any sq ft value you prefer.

Is this tool accurate?

The estimator gives a reliable approximation based on industry averages. For exact structural design, always consult a qualified structural engineer.

Is the tool free?

Yes, 100% free. No registration, no data collection, and it works completely offline in your browser.
