What is 12 inch square hole in basement floor for and it has a 6 inch capped pipe in it?
12x12 square hole in basement floor what is it for
What type of tool is needed to cut a square hole in a hard wood floor to tile?
Saber saw ... plus a drill for a starter hole (or 4 corner holes).
Why are manhole covers in the us round instead of square?
The round manhole cannot fall into the hole no matter which way you turn it.
Why is it that the man-hole is round?
[despite the fact that this is under "rhetorical questions" I will answer it anyways] Man-holes are round because no matter which way you turn the lid, it will never fit into the round hole (With a slightly smaller diameter). If it were any other shape, like a square or triangle, it would be possible to drop the lid in the hole by turning it diagonally.
How much dirt is there in a hole three acres square and two hundred feet deep?
There is no dirt in the hole, but if you want to know how much dirt was removed to create the hole, then:3 acres is an amount of area (you don't have 'square acres'). You could express this volume as acre-feet, but this term is usually used when referring to flooding (an acre of land flooded with 1 foot of water, for example). 1 acre = 43560 square feet, so 3 acres = 130680 square feet.(130680 square feet)*(200 feet) = 26136000 cubic feet {26.136 million cubic feet} In the dirt industry, the standard measurement is cubic yards {often referred to as just 'yards' of dirt}. There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard, so this is equivalent to 968000 cubic yards.
