Square Feet (Sq Ft) in Canada – Definition

The square foot is an international imperial unit for measuring area. This unit is frequently used in the US and Asia as an area measurement unit. It is often used to describe the amount of floor space for real estate or to determine the overall size of an exterior property.

Current Use of Square Feet

While selling or purchasing properties, real estate brokers, landowners, and homeowners refer the houses and plots to their square feet size. Architects may also refer to this unit when they have to design new buildings or remodel an existing one.

History of Square Feet

It is a common belief that the foot was a measurement based on a man’s average foot size. People tend to believe this as the foot measurement unit returns to ancient Greek civilisation. It could be a possibility that people used their feet to measure sizes, and hence, came the name for the measurement unit. On the contrary, some researchers believe that the word foot is based on the foot size of King Henry I, whose feet size was 12 inches.

Define Square Meter (Sq M) in Canada

A square meter or square meter in Canada is a unit of area measurement which is used all across the world to measure two-dimensional spaces. It is the standard international unit of area and is often used in real estate to measure a field or floor. Square meters are usually avoided when measuring length or distance in one direction. It is a globally accepted unit denoted as m2 and is widely used to measure plots, rooms and blocks of land. One square meter equals one meter on each edge of the space, including length and width.

How is Square Meter Utilised

The Square meter, also called the meter squared, is a globally accepted measurement unit. Nevertheless, it is not popular in the United States (US). Carpets and wooden floors are generally priced as per the square meter.

History of Square Meter

The word meter was derived from the Greek word ‘metron’, which means ‘a measure’. In 1675, an Italian researcher named Tito Livio Burattini wanted to standardise the value of a meter according to the length of a pendulum. However, this idea was dropped as the length of the seconds’ pendulum varied from one country to another.

Ultimately, in 1983, the Conférence Générale des Poids et Mesures (CGPM) proposed a new definition of meter still used worldwide. According to this definition, one meter equals the path length of light in a vacuum travelled during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 a second.

Let us proceed to learn about the relationship between these two measurement units. Learning about their relationship will make our conversion from square meters to square feet relatively easy.
