Roman Actus

The actus was an ancient Roman unit of length used primarily in land measurement. It is approximately 120 Roman feet, which equals about 35.5 meters (around 116.5 feet).

The actus was often used to define dimensions of fields and plots of land. It was also part of Roman surveying practices, helping organize land division and property boundaries.

Key facts:

• 
  

  1 actus = 120 Roman feet ≈ 35.5 meters

  
  
• 
  

  Used in Roman land surveying and agriculture

  
  
• 
  

  Essential for measuring fields and agricultural plots

  
  
• 
  

  Reflects the Roman emphasis on precise land division

  
  

The actus highlights the sophistication of Roman engineering and property management in their time.

Microinch

A microinch is a very small unit of length used primarily in precision engineering and manufacturing. It equals one-millionth of an inch (0.000001 inch), which is approximately 0.0254 micrometers (µm).

Microinches are used to measure extremely fine tolerances, surface finishes, and thicknesses in high-precision machining, electronics, and materials science.

Key facts:

• 
  

  1 microinch = 0.000001 inch

  
  
• 
  

  1 microinch ≈ 0.0254 micrometers (µm)

  
  
• 
  

  Used in precision engineering for very small measurements

  
  
• 
  

  Allows for accurate description of surface roughness and thickness

  
  

The microinch is essential in fields requiring ultra-fine measurements where standard units like the inch or millimeter are too large.
