Online linear programming calculator for min size/volume

[ContractorBanking]

Hi. Looking to order a bespoke cushion bag for the patio furniture and trying to find an online calculator that will allow me to work out the min size requirements.

So, I have the following cushions (sizes in cm):

Qty 6: 64 x 64 x 13
Qty 6: 64 x 40 x 19
Qty 1: 48 x 40 x 19
Qty 3: 48 x 48 x 8

Any idea on the size I'd need to order to ensure all cushions best fit to minimize volume and size?


thanks

One size bigger than next door. HTH

There's the theoretical minimum size, based on the total volume. And then there's the tetris minimum size, based on best fit. And finally there's the practical minimum size - the one where you don't have to label each cushion with a number and have a detailed 3D map to show how they stack.

Years ago I used to solve this kind of thing with Microsoft Solver and a bit of code :-)

Your problem is a constrained optimisation one, try Wolfram https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...RcbNXZdNpU_Z2K

Yoof of today solution, order 20 of every size, try them all out and return the ones you don't need
