Measurement Chart:

Parameter
Given
Estimated with sewing allowance
a) Chest
96cm
102cm
b) HPS
65cm
70cm
c) sleeve length
20cm

46cm
49cm
e) Neck

Formula:
           L x W x 12 x GSM kg 
Cpd = ............................................................
                      10000000

Where, 

Cpd = Consumption per dozen
L = Length
W = Width
                            L x W x 12 x GSM
A) Cpd (body) = ................................ kg 
                                  10000000

   70 x 102x 12 x 150 
= ............................................
kg 
         10000000

= 1.28 kg
                               L x W x 12 x 2 x GSM 
B) Cpd (Sleeve) = ............................................kg 
                                       10000000
   25 x 49 x 12 x 2 x 150 
= ................................................ kg 
              10000000

= 0.44 kg

                            L x W x 12 x GSM
C) Cpd (Neck) = ...........................................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.
