Definition of the Circular Inch
A circular inch is the area of a circle with a diameter of 1 inch. The formula for calculating the area of a circle is:
Circular Inch Historical
The circular inch was introduced as a practical unit for measuring areas in contexts where circular cross-sections were common, such as:
- Pipe diameters
- Wire gauges
- Hydraulic and pneumatic systems
It instantly gained employment in engineering and manufacturing industries, especially in those areas of applications that entailed round features or hole measurement.
The circular inch, however, has no origin in the times of agriculture or the surveying of lands or parcels of land like the acre unit of measurement. It is relevant most to industrial and scientific purposes.
The circular inch is a relatively small unit, so its conversions to larger units of area are rarely used in practice. However, it can be expressed as:
1
circular inch = 0.7854
square inches1
circular inch ≈ 5.454 × 10⁻³
square feet1
circular inch ≈ 6.051 × 10⁻⁴
square yards1
circular inch ≈ 5.067 × 10⁻⁴
square centimeters
Use in Measurement Today
The circular inch remains relevant in engineering and manufacturing, particularly in the following areas:
- Hydraulics and Pneumatics: Employed in the determination of the area within cross section of pipes, cylinder and opens at a given moments. For use in calculation of fluid flow rates and pressure throughout various elements of a system.
- Wire and Cable Manufacturing: Usually used in the measurement of wire cross sections since circles are frequently the shapes of sections of wire.
- Mechanical Engineering: It used for designing and analyzing circular shaped members such as shafts, bearings, gears etc.
- Optics and Lenses: Proves quite valuable for designing circular openings and lens.
Notable Uses
- Industrial Design: The circular inch is useful for assessing the capacity and performances of circulation based systems that incorporate circular sections.
- Aerospace and Automotive: Applied in the construction of the engines, turbines and other round engine components.
- Electrical Engineering: Part of the process of defining the cross sectional area of wires thus affecting the current carrying capability.
Definition of the Cuerda
Particularly in relevance to Spain, the cuerda has been described as a measure of land that is normally used in areas of rurality and agriculture. The country or region determines its precise size:
- Puerto Rico:
1
cuerda = 3,930.395625
square meters = 4,210
square yards = 43,560
square feet (same as 1
acre). - Dominican Republic:
1
cuerda = 628.86
square meters = 752.44
square yards = 6,760
square feet (approximately 1/6th of an acre). Lacking standardized size, or length, means that the use of cuerda can only be appreciated in the impartment of local conditions or conditions of the specific locality for accurate measurements of land.
Cuerda Historical
The Club of Cuerda has its roots in Spanish colonial ground measurement. It was employed as a basic form of division while distributing fertile farmland during colonialism, especially among those regions that the Spaniards colonized. The word soud within cueda is 'rope,' probably because it was initially used to calibrate a fixed rope when measuring plots of land.
In Puerto Rico measurements, the cuerda was brought into conformity with the acre, which is believed to have followed the American territorial administration from 1898. However, in some other parts of the world, the cuerda continued to use the smaller and more local equivalent for measurements.
Conversion to Other Units
The size of a cuerda varies by region, so conversions depend on the specific definition:

Use in Land Measurement Today
The cuerda is still widely used in regions where it has historical significance, particularly in rural and agricultural settings. Its uses include:
- Agricultural Land Measurement: Withacu, the cuerda farmers use as a measurement tool in order to divide plots where crops are to be planted into different sizes. It is applied often for determining yields, fertilizer rates and irrigation rates.
- Real Estate Transactions: In some of these countries as Puerto Rico's and Dominican Republic's real estate transactions involve lot sizes, the units used are cuerda.
- Zoning and Planning: Officials of state organization can apply cuerdas in the legislation on zoning and development of rural areas.
Notable Uses in Agriculture and Real Estate
- Agriculture: The cuerda is in frequent use for measuring farmland, especially coffee, sugarcane, and banana farms in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic. This locality guarantees that it remains a unit of choice for most of the local farmers and land owners.
- Real Estate: Known as cuerdas is the method of measuring the size of the rural and suburban real estate. This traditional unit is useful to the buyers and sellers in estimating property value and possible usage.
