What are the feng shui laws in architecture?

I wish to give you my point of view as an expert in classical Feng Shui.

First of all there are many schools of Feng Shui, and therefore some rules are specific to some of them. A "missing corner" of a building can be seen as bad in the Ba Zhai school, and auspicious in the San Yuan school for example.

However some common architecture rules from a traditional Feng Shui are as follow:

-the best house shape is the square, followed by the rectangle. The same goes for the entire premises.

-the door and windows should be in proportion of the house

-the left side of the building (inside looking outside) should have be slightly more elevated than the house itself; it is called the dragon side

-the right side also has to be slightly higher than the building, but lower than the dragon side. It is called the Tiger side.

-the back of the building, referred as the turtle, should be strong and protecting, and distant enough not to overlook the premises

-the front should have a small elevation that protects the house, it is called the phoenix

-the centre of a house should be empty to let the Qi circulates properly. Heating or pond in the center are a big no-no

-the kitchen is best not located on the tiger side, and best voided from direct view, to protect the wealth

-kitchen and bathroom should not be located in direction that trigger a fire and water clash

Those are only a few on the important rules to be respected, and each house has to be tailored for its occupants.

Will a twin size box spring fit a queen?

Your question is missing one key element: a queen what?

If you are trying to place a queen mattress on a twin-sized box spring, the answer is a definite no.

If you'd like to use a queen sized headboard with a twin box spring, the answer is "probably", with some modifications. Depending upon the construction of the headboard, and whether or not it can rely upon a nearby wall for support, you can use a headboard you love with an existing bed, even if the sizes aren't exactly the same. You can remove non-decorative legs from the headboard and hang it on the wall at the head of the bed, like a piece of art. You can attach the headboard as intended to the bed frame and disguise the exposed legs with an extension of the bed skirt, or paint them to match the wall. You can use the headboard along the long side of the twin bed, as the back to a daybed arrangement.

If, however, you are considering using a twin-sized box spring on a queen-sized bed frame, you will have to discover whether or not the frame is made to be adjustable, and, if not, you'll need to install some sort of supportive decking material into the frame, for the box spring to set upon. This arrangement will leave dangerous exposed corners sticking out beyond the mattress, which have to be dealt with, perhaps with a padded cover all around the frame. My advice would be to skip all this retrofit effort, and purchase a new bed frame to fit your box spring. They are generally less than $100.

Will a queen size goose down duvet fit into a twin size duvet cover?

Standard door heights?

The standard exterior door height is 80 inches. The standard exterior door width is 36 inches. The thickness of the door should be at least 3/4" thick.

If a room is 16 feet wide by 24 feet long with a ceiling height of 8 feet how do you convert to square feet?

This calculation is simple geometry:

To figure the area for either the floor or ceiling surface, simply multiply the length of the room by the width (16' wide x 24' long = 384 square feet).

If you require the square footage of the wall surfaces, you turn your calculations vertically; that is, two walls measure (16' wide x 8' high = 128 square feet) each, and two walls measure (24'w x 8'h = 192 ft2) each. Notice the abbreviations in that last formula.

Added together, the total area of all four wallsis (128 x 2) + (192 x 2) = (256 + 384) = 640 ft2.

Add the wall total to the total area of the floor and ceiling to calculate the total area of all six surfaces in the room. That can be written as (384 x 2) + 640 = (768 + 640) = 1408 ft2.

What is the smallest size a full bathroom will fit?

A tub is six foot long, so if you have the tub along the end of the room, then the minimum width would be six feet. You could possibly fit in a small sink and toilet if the room is 7 foot long, but it would be tight. Also, you would have to make sure that the door would clear the toilet. Renting, or buying, people do not want the smallest possible bathroom.

What does a 1 on 2 pitch mean in terms of a roof?

In general, talking about roof pitch, I have never heard or read about this term being used. Roof pitch is measured when you start at the leading edge of a roof and measure

towards the center of the house too 12 feet. Pitch is measured from a imaginary

parallel level line at the 12 foot mark, how many feet high the roof is at 12 feet is the pitch of a roof. If your roof is at 4 feet high at the 12 foot mark then the phrase would be- a 4/12 pitch.
