Construction Fraction Calculator

Our calculator simplifies construction measurements by:

• Accepting feet, inches, and fractions as input
• Supporting addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division
• Converting all measurements to a common unit for calculations
• Displaying results in an easy-to-read format

Fractions are standard in construction because:

• They match the markings on most measuring tools
• Common fractions (1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16) are easier to read and mark
• They provide precise measurements without decimal approximations
• They're the industry standard for blueprints and specifications

The calculator maintains high accuracy by:

• Converting all measurements to exact values internally
• Using precise mathematical operations
• Rounding only in the final display step
• Approximating to the nearest 1/16 inch when needed
