Look for a known reference

|
Reference example: Door=
75 cm
|
|
Formula
to be used:
|
|
|
|
A door usually has a
standard measure, (75cm to 85cm), so we recommend to
use it as a reference
|
|
Actual Measure (AM) |
==>
|
0.183
(Door value on the DXB)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reference (REF) |
==>
|
75 cm
(example)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Measures must be in cm |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
X=
|
75 / 0.183 (REF /
AM)
|
|
