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.
