About this Course

Are you an architect struggling to convert yards into miles? I was in the same boat until I discovered a game-changing solution that transformed my design process. Picture this: you’re working on a project, and you need to convert a distance from yards to miles. The standard conversion factor of 1760 yards per mile feels disconnected and confusing, throwing off your spatial reasoning and disrupting your design flow. But then I found the answer: Convert To Miles Made Easy. This course completely solved my conversion problem. I learned about a newly discovered unit of measurement that revolutionizes the relationship between yards and miles. With this newfound knowledge, I could effortlessly convert between the two units, making large-scale symmetrical designs, performing calculations with ease, and understanding the area of a space in relation to its occupants. Not only did this course save me time and frustration, but it also helped me better comply with codes and standards. Having a conceptual understanding of the relationship between the yard and mile within the built environment allowed me to design with precision and confidence. If you’re tired of struggling with yard-to-mile conversions and want to enhance your design process, this course is your ultimate solution. Join Convert To Miles Made Easy and unlock the power of this revolutionary approach to distance measurement in architecture. Get ready to transform your practice and take your designs to new heights.

Learning Objective 1:
Acquire a comprehensive understanding of the new transitional unit of measurement, “The Field,” and its seamless integration into both the Metric and US Customary System, specifically focusing on the relationship between the 110 yard field and the 100 meter hectometer as both being 1/16th of a mile.

Learning Objective 2:
Learn how to incorporate “The Field” into architectural practice to enhance accuracy, efficiency, and compliance with health, safety, and wellness standards.

Learning Objective 3:
Explore the concept of standardization and its importance in promoting consistency and harmonization within the built environment.

Learning Objective 4:
Recognize the relatability of “The Field” to occupants and how it enhances their understanding of spatial dimensions in the built environment, promoting a better user experience and occupant well-being.
Learning Objective 5:
Gain insights into the globalization of architectural practice and the significance of adopting a universally recognized unit of measurement, to support implementation of the NCARB Mutual Recognition Agreement.

Learning Objective 6:
Develop the skills to convert between “The Field,” yards, and meters, enabling architects to work seamlessly with both the US Customary System and the metric system.

Learning Objective 7:
Recognize the potential for enhanced collaboration, innovation, and knowledge exchange within the global architectural and civil engineering community due to the shared understanding of these measurement units.

Learning Objective 8:
Explore the implications of the aligned units on global standards, regulations, and codes in architecture and civil engineering, emphasizing compliance with health, safety, and environmental requirements.
