All measurements must be made with a 1/4-inch wide flexible steel tape to the nearest one-eighth of an inch. (Note: A flexible steel cable can be used to measure points and main beams only.) Enter fractional figures in eighths, without reduction. For example, if a point measures 7 and 2/8 inches, you would enter 7 2/8 in the space provided.

The greatest spread is measured between perpendiculars in a straight line at a right angle to the center line of the skull. See Figure A.
Abnormal points are those projections originating from normal points or from the upper or lower palm surface, or rom the inner edge of the palm (see illustrations). Abnormal points must be at least one inch long, with the length exceeding the width at one inch or more of length.
Normal points originate from the outer edge of the palm. To be counted a point, a projection must be at least one inch long, with the length exceeding the width at one inch or more of length. Be sure to verify whether or not each projection qualifies as a point.
The width of palm is taken in contact with the under surface of the palm, at a right angle to the inner edge of the palm. The line of measurement should begin and end at the midpoint of the palm edge, which gives credit for the desirable character of palm thickness.
The length of the palm including the brow palm is taken in contact with the surface along the underside of the palm, parallel to the inner edge, from dips between the points at the top to dips between points (if present) at the bottom. If a bay is present, measure across the open bay if the proper line of measurement, parallel to the inner edge, follows this path. The line of measurement should begin and end at the midpoint of the palm edge.
The circumference of the beam at the smallest place is taken as illustrated in Figure B.
