Square Rod (US Survey)


A square rod (US survey) is a unit of area based on the US survey foot and rod, used primarily in land surveying in the United States.



  • 1 US survey rod = 16.5 US survey feet (exactly 16.5 feet)



  • 1 square rod (US survey) = 16.5 ft × 16.5 ft = 272.25 square feet ≈ 25.2929 m²



The US survey square rod is slightly different in exact length than the international measurement due to the foot definition but is essentially used the same way for land measurement.



Are [a]


An are (a) is a unit of area equal to 100 square meters (m²). It is commonly used in land measurement, especially in some European countries.

1 are = 100 m² = 0.01 hectares.

Ares are useful for measuring small plots of land or gardens.
