Did u still get a calculation?

Well I believe its an estimated quotation which can never give an acurate measurement. It will only guide you.
He didn't make provision for cladding, and flashings ( ridge, gutter, eave angle, bottom, e.t.c )

This are Zinc and Aluminium roofing sheets - but they're not as good as Longspan.

It's better to use Longspan or Asbestos roofing sheet (IN MY OPINION)

not that what I calculated for is LONG SPAN ROOFING - if its GERRADE it wld be more... also, I assumed the eave projection was 450mm.. if its wrong, what was used on site.

lastly, I only calculated the roof covering minus the others cladding etc...

Yes it for long span aluminum stucco

go with the 2nd or 3rd guy - both are about same.

Note: apart from the Length, Breath and King post you sent; there are other measurements needed to calculte Area of Roofing (which you did not send) and I assumed dimension for those/

So. my area of 340m2 might not be accurate.
