<\/p>\nIn Japan, where construction is prohibited, the units \u339c (millimeter), \u339d (centimeter), and \uff4d (meter) are used.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The unit used depends on the situation. For large measurements, \u201cm\u201d is used; for medium-sized measurements, \u201ccm\u201d is used; and for small objects, \u201cmm\u201d is used.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
A \u201cmakijaku\u201d (tape measure in Japanese) is used to measure long distances, and the unit \u201cm\u201d is commonly used.<\/p>\n
When measurements are given in mm or cm, there is a possibility of confusion or error.<\/p>\n
In our work on \u201cslope construction,\u201d when we measure the site, we use a tape measure and measure in \u201cm.\u201d.<\/p>\n
For example, if the measurement is 10.53 m, it would be 1,053 cm in centimeters and 10,530 mm in millimeters.<\/p>\n
As the number gets bigger, it becomes harder to understand. If it goes past 10 m, that becomes 10,000 mm\u2014it\u2019s hard to wrap your head around, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n
Kaya, when the distance is long, let's use \u201cm.\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The \u201cconvex\u201d (convex rule or scale) is used to measure distances of less than 6 meters.<\/p>\n
In cases like this, some people use \"m\" or \"cm\" depending on what's most convenient. Of course, you can also measure using \"mm.\".<\/p>\n
No matter what unit you use, it\u2019s best if you can quickly understand it and convert measurements right away.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
When using a \u201cvernier caliper,\u201d the unit of measurement is almost always \u339c. It is extremely rare for anyone to use \u201cm\u201d with this type of instrument.<\/p>\n
If the measurement is small, it\u2019s clearer to use millimeters.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Please make sure to keep this conversion chart handy. For example, 1 cm = 0.01 m and 1 cm = 10 mm.<\/p>\n
If you're having trouble reading the chart, try looking at a ruler while examining it\u2014it will make it easier to understand.<\/p>\n
Try counting each mark on the ruler to get the hang of it ^^<\/p>\n
Measuring things is extremely important. Especially in the construction industry, it\u2019s an essential skill!<\/p>\n
We need to accurately measure the different sizes of objects. Make sure you understand this 100%!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
