I want to get some artificial lawn but can't work out how measurement are made. I think one company sells by the linear meter and another by cubic meter. How do I work out the amount i need? I am shocking at Maths!!!!

Well, it should be sold by the square foot. For your artificial lawn, just measure the length of the area, and the width, then multiply the two Numbers to get a square footage. If it is sold by the linear meter, it is a straight measurement for the artificial lawn, and it will come at a predetermined width.
Either way, you will have the measurements.
Good Luck!!!!!!!

Artificial lawn would never be sold by the cubic meter. It's sold either by linear meters, in which case you would need to inquire as to the width of the product, or by the square meter. Figuring out how many square meters you will need is relatively easy, even for the math-challenged. You merely multiply the width of your property by its length, then subtract for the area of your house, driveway, and anything else that is not going to be covered by the turf. Let's say your property is 20 meters by 40 meters - that's 20 X 40= 800 square meters. Now suppose your house is 150 square meters, and the driveway another 65. That's 150 + 65 = 215 square meters, subtracted from 800 gives 585 square meters of product you'd need in that example. See? Nothing difficult about it.

Linear refers to length. The first company has lawn material in a specific width, say, 4 meters, and you buy by the linear meter. If you buy one linear meter you will receive a piece 4 meters wide by 1 meter long. The second company sells by the square meter. That is 1 meter long by 1 meter wide, which is what you would get if you buy 1 meter. Hence the term "square." A cubic meter would be 1 meter long by 1 meter wide by 1 meter tall. which would be a perfect cube.

I would think you would need a sq. meter which is multiplying the length of your yard. by the width of your yard. That would cover the surface of your yard. I cubic meter would be used if you were trying to cover a cube ex. a box??? which wouldn't be needed for your yard. Linear is in a straight line.Ex. if you were measuring the distance along a curb.
Hope this solves your problem.

If you multiply linear meters, which is the total length of your strips of turf in meters, by the width (in meters) of a strip of turf, you can convert to square meters. I am not sure how cubic meters got into the mix, but you can convert to square meters by dividing by the thickness of each layer of turf, allowing for voids created in stacking.

100 centimeters
It is a metric measurement from point A to point B.
For a cubic measurement, you would times length by width by height.

It's the length of the variable dimension. The other two are fixed or within limits Say, it's the dimension of an 8m beam with 3.5x2.6m cross section, the cost would be 256x8
