Formula:
Cpd = L
x W x 12 x GSM kg
10000000
Where, Cpd =
Consumption per dozen
L
= Length
W
= Width
A) Cpd (body) =
L x W x 12 x GSM kg
10000000
= 70 x
102x 12 x 150 kg
10000000
= 1.28 kg
B) Cpd (Sleeve) =
L x W x 12 x 2 x GSM
kg
10000000
= 25 x 49
x 12 x 2 x 150 kg
10000000
= 0.44 kg
C) Cpd (Neck) =
L x W x 12 x GSM kg
10000000
=
61 x 7 x 12 x 180 kg
10000000
=
0.092 kg
So, total Cpd = (A + B+C)
=
(1.28 + 0.44 + 0.09) kg
=
1.81 kg
Actual Cpd = Total Cpd +
7% wastage
=
(1.81 + 7%)
=
1.94 kg
So,
the fabric consumption for men’s T-shirt is 1.94 kg per dozen.

10000000
= 1.28 kg
B) Cpd (Sleeve) =
L x W x 12 x 2 x GSM

C) Cpd (Collar) = L x W x 12 x GSM kg
107
=

C) Cpd (Collar) = L x W x 12 x GSM kg
107
=
46 x 10 x 12 x 400 kg
107

D) Cpd (Cuff) = L x
W x 12 x 2 x GSM kg
107
=
30 x 5 x 12 x 2 x 300 kg

So, total Cpd= A + B + C + D
=
(1.28 + 0.44 + 0.22 + 0.108) kg
=
2.05kg
Actual Cpd = 2.05 kg + 7%
=
