[quote ]“Measurement is the first step that leads to control and eventually to improvement. If you can’t measure something, you can’t understand it. If you can’t understand it, you can’t control it. If you can’t control it, you can’t improve it.” – H. James Harrington[/quote] Proper knowledge of, and skills in, measurement techniques are required to properly construct engineering works and structures. Lack of knowledge and miscalculations can result in catastrophic events. Take, for example, the Great Kersten Blunder, in which software controlling a space probe on course for Venus used “24.5” instead of “25.4” to convert millimeters to inches.…
