Measuring curved countertops involves specific techniques, particularly when preparing for fabrication. Based on the provided reference, one method focuses on measuring a curved edge for cutting purposes.
According to the reference titled "Measuring Odd-Shaped Countertops," when a fabricator plans to cut a curved, or wavy edge on a countertop as a single, solid piece, they utilize a specific measurement approach.
The reference states that to measure this type of curved edge for cutting:
- You would measure the curve at its widest point and multiply this by its total length.
This particular method is described in the context of fabricators preparing to cut the material for a countertop with a detailed, curved edge design, helping them determine aspects potentially related to material yield or the cutting path for that specific edge shape.
