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.



Square Meter [m²]


A square meter (m²) is the SI unit of area. It represents the area of a square with sides that are 1 meter long. Square meters are commonly used to measure spaces like rooms, land, and buildings. For example, a room that is 5 meters long and 4 meters wide has an area of 20 m² (5 × 4 = 20).
