When we know what you are trying to accomplish we can ask you questions as well and give more targeted and helpful answers. The forum is private, so you can speak freely about your work in a way that you might not feel comfortable doing in a comment thread on the blog. Mahmod,

It is largely not possible to supply a ready answer to your questions. Rather, it is a matter of discovery and exploration -resourcefulness in that one can only explore possible solutions for themselves. For what it's worth, I also suspected you were a student wanting help with your homework mostly because your questions seemed simplistic in the sense that (it seemed) there was a presumption of one fast easy answer. Speaking again of resourcefulness, this site has nearly 3,000 other posts with content that may be more targeted to your interests. You may find it helpful to explore and find the answers you seek. I can't speak for anyone else but it strikes me that someone who demonstrates resourcefulness tends to post their questions to entries that are more closely related. We tend to roll out the red carpet for someone who says "I looked for the answer to X but couldn't find it. Can you tell me where that information would be?"

Weight of Warp fabric (gsm) : (dencity of warp*36"*warp count*1.2)/9000 B. Weight of weft fabric (gsm) : (dencity of weft*36*weft count*1.045)/9000 So total weight of fabric is : (A + B) The problem is for some this formula could'n used for general construction, because I found calculation result and actual weighing in between one construction to the others it is different, some of there close and the others big different. So that why I asked you by three different construction of fabric. I think may crepe factor, or twist factor or others. Please help to make correction (or you have some correction factor for any construction, let say for chiffon fabrics, for double GGT fabrics, or for polyester texture fabrics), it will be useful for my job analysis. Thank you, Rgds, Dedy Dear Mahmod,

I need answer of my other question can you help. thanks Can anybody tell me (from textile point of view) 1) what are the fabric very suitable/sustainable for shirt with construction , weave, 2) what are the fabric very suitable/sustainable for pant with construction , weave, 3) what are the fabric very suitable/sustainable for suit /jacket/blazer with construction , weave thanks Hi Kuasha, since you mentioned in your post 12-may 2010 regarding universal variable 25 but I am getting this number are different from many people like 23.6, 27.5,25.6 can you reconfirm which one is right ? pls help thanks I would like gather some idea on below fabric can any boday help ? cambray , oxford , corduroy,bedford, tapata, taslon, micro fiber with their nature and usuage hope i will get a good idea on above fabric Hi Kathleen,
understand . I need answer of my other question can you help.
thanks

Can anybody tell me (from textile point of view)
1) what are the fabric very suitable/sustainable for shirt with construction , weave,
2) what are the fabric very suitable/sustainable for pant with construction , weave,
3) what are the fabric very suitable/sustainable for suit /jacket/blazer with construction , weave
thanks

Hi Kuasha,
since you mentioned in your post 12-may 2010 regarding universal variable 25 but I am getting this number are different from many people like 23.6, 27.5,25.6 can you reconfirm which one is right ? pls help
thanks

I would like gather some idea on below fabric can any boday help ?
cambray , oxford , corduroy,bedford, tapata, taslon, micro fiber with their nature and usuage

However *depending on intended application*, looser weaves (only tangentially related to gsm) may require different kinds of finishing which affects the specified process within the value stream of textile manufacturing.

Use a thumb rule of thread count X 42/ yarn count to have the approximate weight of the fabric per mt 3)GSM= ((EPI/warpcount X 1.1) + (PPI/weft count x 1.04)) x 23.5 4)Cloth weight in GSM =[ EPI/Warp ct + PPI/weft ct ] x 25.6 tell me which one is right from above? again I have got different formula that ’s why I want to sure which is right ?

tell me which one is right from above?
