Definitions of Square Yards and Square Meters
Square Yard (yd²) – A unit of area used in the imperial and US customary measurement systems. One square yard is the area of a square with each side measuring one yard (3 feet or 36 inches).
- Symbol: yd²
- 1 Square Yard = 0.836127 Square Meters
Square Meter (m²) – The SI (International System of Units) base unit for measuring area. It represents the area of a square with sides of one meter each.
- Symbol: m²
- 1 Square Meter = 1.19599 Square Yards
Conversion Formula
The conversion from square yards (yd²) to square meters (m²) is done using the formula:
m² = yd² × 0.836127
This conversion factor is sourced from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) – Special Publication 811, which provides accurate measurement standards.
