The Bureau's overall goal is to strengthen and advance the Nation's science and technology and facilitate their effective application for public benefit. To this end, the Bureau conducts research and provides: (1) a basis for the Nation's physical measurement system, (2) scientific and technological services for industry and government, (3) a technical basis for equity in trade, and (4) technical services to promote public safety. The Bureau consists of the Institute for Basic Standards, the Institute for Materials Research, the Institute for Applied Technology, the Institute for Computer Sciences and Technology, and the Office for Information Programs. THE INSTITUTE FOR BASIC STANDARDS provides the central basis within the United States of a complete and consistent system of physical measurement; coordinates that system with measurement systems of other nations; and furnishes essential services leading to accurate and uniform physical measurements throughout the Nation's scientific community, industry, and commerce. The Institute consists of the Office of Measurement Services, the Office of Radiation Measurement and the following Center and divisions: Applied Mathematics — Electricity — Mechanics — Heat — Optical Physics — Center for Radiation Research: Nuclear Sciences; Applied Radiation — Laboratory Astrophysics - — Cryogenics ~ — Electromagnetics " — Time and Frequency ". THE INSTITUTE FOR MATERIALS RESEARCH conducts materials research leading to improved methods of measurement, standards, and data on the properties of well-characterized materials needed by industry, commerce, educational institutions, and Government: provides advisory and research services to other Government agencies; and develops, produces, and distributes standard reference materials.

  • Measuring and Figuring for Gardeners Before Purchasing Plants, Compost and Mulch, It Is Good to Have Some Idea About the Quantities That Will Be Needed
    Measuring and Figuring for Gardeners Before purchasing plants, compost and mulch, it is good to have some idea about the quantities that will be needed. A visual estimate will usually work, but when time or money is limited and a large project is in the works, it is best to come to Bowood prepared. how to measure your garden Lawns, vegetable plots and garden beds are measured in square feet. You will need to know your square footage when seeding lawns, figuring vegetable production, buying annual flowers or when spacing out your perennials, shrubs and trees. o It is easy to measure areas that are shaped like a square or rectangle: Area = Length x Width. o Measure one side of a square plot and multiply that number by itself to get the square footage. o Measure the length and the width of a rectangular plot and multiply those two numbers to get the square footage. 5’ 10’ 20’ These two plots have the same square footage because 10’ 10’ x 10’ = 100 square feet & 5’ x 20’ = 100 square feet o Think of triangular plots as half-squares or half-rectangles. Measure each side and divide by two and you will have the square footage. o Another way to visualize this is to imagine a 10’ x 10’ square extended from a triangular plot and divide that in half. Your imaginary plot is 50 square feet. o This works with most triangular shapes. Sometimes you’ll just have to estimate. 10’ (Err on the side of EXTRA when doing your figuring so you won’t have to make a return trip to Bowood in the middle of your project!) o Irregular shapes and circles can be roughly figured by combining squares, 10’ rectangles, and triangles.
