Metal buildings are figured on gross sq. footage of wall and ceilings.
To calculate how much spray foam you will need for
metal walls and ceilings:
1.Calculate the linear footage of your metal building
2.Multiple this total by the height of your walls
Example: You have a 20' x 30' metal building with 10' walls.
20+20+30+30 = 100 linear feet
100 x 10 = 1000 sq. ft
If you are doing the ceiling also, it's 20' x 30' = 600 sq. ft. Add that total to 1,000 sq. ft of walls and you need to cover 1,600 sq. ft.
Three of the TF-600 kits will do that, even allowing for a 3:1 pitch in the roof.

Technical Information
Unless otherwise stated, the density of TIGER FOAM is 1.75 lbs. per cubic foot.
Tiger Foam two component foams are rated at R-Value of 6.2-7.4 per inch (depends on the external factors such as humidity and temperature during the application and curing).
The size of the kit, i.e. 600 or 200, is indicative of the board foot coverage or expanded yield for that kit. Thus, a 600 kit will cover 600 square feet at 1" thick. A board foot as it relates to this product is a square foot one inch thick. The kit size is yield of the kit expanded.
The conversion to cubic foot yield for these kits is generally 600 yields 50 cubic feet and 200 yields 16 cubic feet of foam.
To convert gallons to cubic feet for filling liquid tanks with foam (for EPA membranes, flotation devises etc.), multiply gallons by 0.1337. So a 500 gallon tank would need 66.85 cu to fill the tank requiring a TF600SR and TF-200 for a total of 66 cu. yield.
Tiger Foam contains NO Penta-BDEs as a fire retardant and are both E-84 Fired Rated
