About these units
Hundred-Cubic Foot (100 ft³)
This is simply another expression of 100 cubic feet, used in billing systems, engineering calculations, and pipeline monitoring. Where the abbreviation CCF is standard for water utilities, many technical publications explicitly use "100 ft³" to avoid ambiguity. Engineers working on ventilation systems, gas pipelines, or storage capacities may choose this form for clarity in calculations. Its simplicity and direct reference to cubic feet make it a universally understood expression in industries that rely on imperial volume measurement.
Minim (UK) (minim (UK))
The UK minim is one of the smallest traditional volume units, equal to 1/60 of a dram, or roughly 0.059 milliliters. Introduced in the early 19th century to replace the inconsistent "drop," the minim allowed physicians and pharmacists to dose potent liquid medicines more reliably. Before modern syringes and droppers, apothecaries needed a precise micro-unit that could be measured using graduated glassware. The minim served this purpose exceptionally well and was foundational in early medical standardization. Although no longer used in contemporary medicine, it remains historically important, especially in pharmacology, toxicology, and the study of pre-modern medical practice.
