@jimgoodall @vwbusguy @saramg Out of curiosity, which construction measurements are metric?
We had a reno done recently, and decided our ceiling heights in feet, all the studs remain 16" on-centre, etc.

I'm old enough to still weigh myself in pounds (vs. the doctor weighing my daughter in kg, requiring my using a calculator), still use F on my oven, and had until quite recently, for decades, thought I was six feet tall because my driver's licence says I'm 180 cm.

I’m retired from 40 years in construction, with the last 20 years being mostly under contract to City of Toronto. Water pumping stations and sewage treatment plants.
Everything is metric with CoT.

Your studs would be 40.6 cms.

Still annoying.
