Angle of Corners of a Plot

  • If all the four angles are 90 degrees it is good.
  • South West angle should be close to 90 degrees or less but never more.
  • North West angle should be close to 90 degrees or more but never less.
  • North East angle should be close to 90 degrees or less but never more.
  • The distance between North East Corner and South West corner should always be more than the distance from North West corner to South East corner.

To find out angles at site the easiest method is 3,4,5 method Measure a distance of 3 M along XY. Along another side Measure a distance of 4M adjacent to XY say YZ. If distance XZ is 5M than angle XYZ is 90 degrees if it is less than 5M, angle is less.

Rounding Off Corners or Cutting Corners

A plot which is immediately adjacent to a circular road has their corners cut or rounded off. Similarly on the intersection of a street lane and the the main roads, the plots corners are cut to broaden the view of outgoing/incoming traffic.
