The story behind the case, including that of the 1951 trial in a Kansas courtroom, is much less known.
You don't. A linear foot is 1 foot. A square foot is 1 ftÂ². Linear measure is given when one wants eg to describe density, as 1 lb/ft = 1 PLF, where 1 lb/sq ft = 1 PSF, and 1 PCF = 1 lb/cu ft. Written Jun 6, 2015.
To determine square footage - Measure length time width. To determine linear footage - Divide square footage by 2.1, and round the result up to next whole number. To calculate a waste allowance - Multiply the linear foot result by 5% (for waste)and add the product to the linear footage. Anyone telling you that there are 40 linear ft. in a 100 square ft. room that measures 10 ft. by 10 ft. is flat wrong...period! Source(s):
