About Square Yards
A square yard (yd²) is an imperial unit of area equal to a square with sides of one yard (3 ft × 3 ft or 9 ft²). It is commonly used for measuring carpet, fabric, and concrete in construction projects. A queen-size mattress covers about 5 yd², and a typical driveway might require 30-50 yd² of concrete. This unit is particularly common in the textile, carpeting, and landscaping industries in imperial-system countries.
