AI-ORGANISED INDEX
measurement · m2, hectares, acres
The workhorse of farm measurement: field areas, yard areas, floor areas and the size of a sheet of plywood. Multiply the two sides, then convert.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
surveying · m3
More accurate earthwork volumes than end-area averaging, especially on long cuttings.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
geometry · m
Bending strip, curved edging and the length of a curved wall.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
measurement · m2, cm2
For wedges, gussets, triangular yard patches, roof end bays and the spread of a spray boom on a slope.

construction · m2
The first number for any insulation job. Measure every wall and subtract the openings, and buy 10% extra for the cutting.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
workshop · m2, litres
Measure the wall, not the tin. Two coats on new plaster need a primer first. See Painting And Prep.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
measurement · m2, cm2, mm2
Used for round tanks, silage pits, feed bins, pipe ends and round bales. Measure the diameter, halve it for the radius.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
energy · watts (W)
For sizing a solar array for the electric fence, the lights or a small freezer. Multiply the panel area by the irradiance you can count on, not the best case.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
geometry · m2
Paint, coating and insulation on spherical or domed tanks.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
measurement · m2
A field with one square end, a yard that narrows, the cross section of a ditch bank, a hipped roof panel.

geometry · m2
Diamond-shaped panels, paving patterns and braces. Multiply the diagonals and halve.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
geometry · m2
Oval beds, elliptical tank ends and oval pipe openings.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX

Setting out a curved gate, an arch or a circular saw cut.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
surveying · m2
The shoelace method for an irregular field boundary from surveyed coordinates.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
advanced-maths · m2
Area of an irregular field or a pond from equally spaced offsets.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
growing · m
Bed planning. Work out how many plants you want, divide the bed area by the number, and that is the space each one gets.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
geometry · m2
Roofs, hoppers and conical covers. Slant height is the distance up the slope.
AI-ORGANISED INDEX
geometry · m2
