How are laps/sheet covers calculated?

Sheet/panel end lap and side laps are well covered by the software. Side laps are handled by a panel underlap distance variable and can be modified per-sheet or per-job. End laps, such as when polycarbonate sheets are positioned between metal sheets (up the roof plane) are also handled and overlaps at the bottom and underlaps at the top with separate variables. Overall sheet coverage is modified when the sheet record is set up.
