The Metric Conversion Status for the Highway Program
by Jennifer Balis The 1998 construction season represents a major turning point in the metric conversion process currently underway in the highway construction industry. Data collected by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) indicates that just under 65 percent of the 1998 construction dollars will be let for projects using the International System of Measurements (SI). Also, current estimates by the state departments of transportation (DOT) indicate that metric units will be used in projects representing 85 percent of the entire 1999 state-administered highway construction program. These estimates are a substantial increase from 1997 when projects using metric measurements made up 45 percent of the program. Metric conversion of the U.S. highway industry has come about primarily as a result of the 1988 Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act. In this act, Congress mandated that federal government agencies use the SI metric system of measurements in their daily business to encourage U.S. industry to adopt SI and to become more competitive in the worldwide market. Although we do not export our highways, we can and do export the technology to build them efficiently. Therefore, converting the highway industry to the SI system will enable its many consultants, contractors, materials suppliers, and equipment manufacturers to compete more readily in the global marketplace.

How to Measure
The Equipment:
Graduated Measuring Cups
Measuring cups that resemble small pots. They are usually made of plastic or metal and come in sets of four (1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 cup, and 1/4 cup). They are excellent for measuring dry ingredients because they can easily be leveled off.
Liquid Measuring Cups
Measuring cups that look like little pitchers. They are widely available in 1-, 2-, 4-, and 8-cup measures. They come in glass or plastic, with the amounts indicated in cups, ounces, and milliliters. Pyrex is a good brand. The larger measures can double as mixing bowls.

Go Metric! - Think Metric!
It's an Act of Congress!
The 94th Congress of the United States
passed in 1975 the first Act mandating
use of the METRIC SYSTEM . Not
much has happened since. The second attempt was in 1984, when
the Federal Government required use
of the metric system in all its official
documents. The business world still
did not respond. Today, all businesses are required to
use the metric system in all their
domestic and international activities.
Europe, the former Soviet states and Japan are all metric. In order to maintain competitiveness in the current global economy, the United States should adopt the metric system without any further delay. It can be done. It should be done now. COMMON METRIC EQUIVALENTS 1 inch = 25.4000 millimeters 1 foot = 0.3048 meter 1 yard = 0.9144 meter 1 mile = 1.6093 kilometers 1 square inch = 6.4516 sq. centimeters 1 square foot = 0.0929 square meter 1 square yard = 0.8361 square meter 1 cubic inch = 16.3871 cu. centimeters 1 cubic foot = 0.0283 cubic meter 1 cubic yard = 0.7646 cubic meter 1 quart = 0.9464 liter 1 gallon = 0.0038 cubic meter 1 ounce = 28.3495 grams 1 pound = 0.4536 kilogram 1 horsepower = 0.7457 kilowatt

General Rules for Abbreviating Units of Measure
  • Always abbreviate units when reporting numerical information.
  • Unless otherwise noted, singular and plural units are abbreviated the same.
    • Percent is not abbreviated, but is symbolized by the familiar " " symbol.
  • Always put a space between the number and unit , e.g., 203.65 m, 457 um
  • When do you abbreviate units vs. spelling out the unit(s) as word(s)?
    • abbreviate units when you are reporting a numerical value:
    "The maximum depth achieved by the ROV was 124 m approximately 2.3 km due south of Pt. Lobos."
    • spell out the unit as a word when using it in a non-numerical context, e.g.,
    "All measurements were made in
