Curtea este egală cu 3 picioare sau 36 de centimetri. În conformitate cu un acord încheiat în 1959 între Australia, Canada, Noua Zeelandă, Africa de Sud, Regatul Unit și Statele Unite, curtea a fost definită legal ca fiind exact 0,9144 de metri. Înainte de această dată, definiția juridică a șantierului, exprimată în unități metrice, a variat ușor de la o țară la alta.
