To calculate the floor mass of tile adhesive, first determine the coverage rate of the adhesive, typically provided by the manufacturer (e.g., in square feet per bag). Next, measure the area to be tiled in square feet. Multiply the area by the required adhesive thickness to find the volume, then convert that volume to weight using the adhesive's density (usually provided on the packaging). This will give you the total mass of adhesive needed for the project.
