I'm laying out rebar pins that are parallel to our house so the layout of our shed will be square with it. I placed two pins along the back of the house that are spaced 207 inches apart. I want to create reference pins that are exactly 207 inches apart but 320 inches away from the back of the house.
Using my Craftsman Construction Calculator I was able to determine the diagonal for the rectangle which is 207 inches by 320 inches. The calculator allows you to enter Rise, Run, and then press the Diag function to calculate the diagonal. It calculated 381 1/8 inches.
I have a 35-foot Stanely tape measure and a 100' Kobalt tape measure. I was able to tape the end of the 35' tape measure to the one piece of rebar. Then I noticed the Kobalt has a loop at the end for you to place it over 1/2 inch rebar. I wasn't aware this tape measure had this feature so that made things easier for me once I discovered it.
