Chains A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.
The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.
Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.
Rod A rod is a unit of length used in land measurement and surveying. One rod is equivalent to 16.5 feet or approximately 5.0292 meters.
The rod is defined as 16.5 feet, providing a measurement that is useful for various applications in land surveying, agriculture, and construction.
Rods are commonly used in tasks such as property measurement, plotting land, and agricultural practices. The unit provides a practical measurement for shorter distances and has historical significance in land surveying.
