Fraction Calculator: Feet Inch APP
Stop doing tape-measure math in your head. Joist keeps a running "tape" of everything you calculate, so this morning's number is still there this afternoon.
FEET-INCH-FRACTION KEYPAD
• Enter feet, inches and fractions with fat, easy-to-hit buttons
• Add, subtract, multiply and divide measurements
• One-tap imperial to metric (mm) conversion
• Exact fraction math — no rounding drift, snaps to 1/16" or 1/32"
• A running history tape you can scroll back through
JOBSITE SOLVERS
• Stairs — risers, riser height, treads, total run, stringer length and slope angle, with code-limit warnings
• Board feet — total board footage for any lumber order
• Rafters — rafter length, run, rise, pitch and cut angle (Pro)
• Concrete — slab and tube/column yardage with waste allowance (Pro)
• Drywall — sheets needed for a room (Pro)
• Flooring — boxes needed for any floor (Pro)
Every solver ships with a clear, labeled diagram so you can see exactly what each number means.
