How many units for 50, 100, or 200 workers?
Unit counts by crew size
The math assumes one worker per private room, which is how our units are laid out: every room has its own bath.
| Workers | 5-room crew units | 7-room sleepers | 4-suite units |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 | 10 units (50 rooms) | 8 units (56 rooms) | 13 units (52 rooms) |
| 100 | 20 units (100 rooms) | 15 units (105 rooms) | 25 units (100 rooms) |
| 200 | 40 units (200 rooms) | 29 units (203 rooms) | 50 units (200 rooms) |
To get your own number, divide the headcount by the rooms per unit and round up, or use the crew housing calculator, which also gives a rough footprint and build time.
Which model fits which camp
- Crews that cook for themselves: 5-bed crew units with a shared kitchen. No dining hall needed.
- Catered camps: 7-room sleepers or 5-room sleepers. Most beds per unit, but meals come from a dining hall or caterer.
- Supervisors and long stays: 4-suite units with full kitchens.
Many camps mix them: sleepers for the craft crew, a few suite units for supervisors.
What else the site needs
Unit count is only part of the plan. Leave room for truck parking, fire lanes, wastewater, and dining if you choose sleepers. See man camp layout, how many units fit on an acre, and what utilities a man camp needs.

Usually. Supervisors, visiting staff, and crew turnover overlap. Many buyers add a few rooms or a suite unit for supervisors. Tell us your headcount and shift pattern, and our team will help size the order.
