About These Units

About Chinese Yard

The Chinese yard, known as 'zhang' in Chinese, is a traditional unit of length equal to 10 Chinese feet (chi). This measurement was commonly used in construction, architecture, and land surveying in traditional China. The zhang provided a convenient intermediate measurement between the smaller chi and larger distance measurements like the li.

About Step

The step is a traditional unit of distance, equal to 1/2 pace. The step is traditionally equal to 30 inches or 76.2 centimeters. However, U.S. marching bands often use a shorter step of 22.5 inches (57.15 centimeters), so that 8 steps are made every 5 yards; this works well on American football fields, which have a chalkline every 5 yards. Using this shorter step is called marching "8 by 5."
