Hand to Decameter Converter
Hand (hh) to Decameter (dam) Conversion
The Hand is the standard unit for measuring horse height worldwide. One hand equals exactly 4 inches. For example, an average riding horse stands about 15-16 hands (60-64 inches) tall at the shoulder. This measurement is taken from the ground to the horse's withers (shoulder ridge). The decameter (dam) is used to measure medium-scale distances like the length of a tennis court (~2.3 dam) or a cricket pitch (~2.0 dam). It’s also practical for land surveying and agricultural plots (e.g., a small field might be 10 dam × 20 dam).
