    The maximum length of a technical paper is 10,000 words and word-equivalents or 8 printed pages. A technical note should not exceed 3,500 words and
    word-equivalents in length or 4 printed pages. Approximate the length by using the form below to calculate the total number of words in the text and adding
    to the total number of word-equivalents of the figures and tables to obtain a grand total of words for the paper/note to fit ASCE format. Overlength papers
    must be approved by the editor; however, valuable overlength contributions are not intended to be discouraged by this procedure.

    1. Estimating Length of Text


    A. Fill in the four numbers (highlighted in green) in the column to the right
    Estimating Length of Text
    to obtain the total length of text.
    NOTE: Equations take up a lot of space. Most computer programs don’t count the Count # of words in 3 lines
    amount of space around display equations. Plan on counting 3 lines of text for every of text: 0
    simple equation (single line) and 5 lines for every complicated equation (numerator and Divided by 3 3
    denominator). Average # of words per line 0
    Count # of text
    lines per page 0

    A. First count the longest line in each column across adding two characters between
    add references & abstract)
    each column and one character between each word to obtain total characters.

    17 lines (or less) = 158 word equiv. 17 lines (or less) = 315 word equiv. 83
    up to 34 lines = 315 word equiv. up to 34 lines = 630 word equiv. 583
    up to 51 lines = 473 word equiv. up to 51 lines = 945 word equiv.
    up to 68 text lines = 630 word equiv. up to 68 text lines = 1260 word equiv.
