What is Chain ?

A Chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and historical measurement systems. It is equal to 66 feet or 22 yards, which is approximately 20.1168 meters.

Historically, chains were used to measure and demarcate land for purposes such as mapping, property boundaries, and construction. They were laid out in a straight line and used alongside other surveying tools to create accurate maps and plans.

In modern times, while the use of chains has diminished with the adoption of metric and standard measurement systems, the term "chain" persists in certain contexts, especially in older land deeds and historical documents. It remains a reminder of traditional surveying methods and the importance of precise measurements in land management and development.
