When it is cut from the tree it starts out 2 x 4". During the drying and planing process its size is reduced.
3/4" x 2 1/2"
The actual size of 1x2 lumber is 3/4 inch by 1 1/2 inches.
3/4 x 3 1/2

The **"actual size"** refers to the true, precise dimensions of a product or material after manufacturing, while the **"nominal size"** is the label or standard size used for identification and may differ slightly from the actual size due to trimming or finishing processes. For example, a 2x4 piece of lumber has a nominal size of 2 inches by 4 inches, but its actual size is typically 1.5 inches by 3.5 inches.
The motor size of most chainsaws are approximately 2 cc. There are, however, different size motors that range from 2 cc to 4 cc.

1 3/4" x 12. Generally, the length is accurate, but the width rarely is.
EMT is electrical metallic tubing. In the electrical trade there are nominal sizes expressed as a standard size. To answer your question you must state the conduit size in either electrical terms or in standard size terms to get a conversion size.For example standard size 1/2" EMT has an actual diameter size of 3/4" and the 1/2"EMT connector for the 1/2" EMT conduit needs a 7/8" hole.Likewise with 3/4" EMT the actual outside diameter is 15/16" and the 3/4" EMT connector needs a 1-1/8" hole.
There are different sizes when framing lumber. The most common size of framing lumber is 2 by 4.
A nominal 2 x 4 actually measures 1.5 inches by 3.5 inches in size. This discrepancy arises from the milling process, where the wood is cut to larger dimensions and then planed down. Consequently, the final dimensions are smaller than the nominal size. This sizing convention is standard in the lumber industry.
