There was an error in calculating the Foundation 5 - 1170 grid

Currently, I am in the process of learning Foundation 5 and working on an app that utilizes a 1170 grid system. The app has 70px columns and 30px gutters (which equals to 1170 when calculated as 70 * 12 + 30 * 11). However, after setting the default values in my foundation _settings.scss file:

$row-width: rem-calc(1170); $column-gutter: rem-calc(30); $total-columns: 12;

I noticed that instead of having 70px wide columns, each column is actually 97px wide. Can someone help me understand how this calculation is done? Am I missing any variables in the settings? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Upon further inspection, I discovered that in Chrome, a 68px column is generated with 15px padding on the left and right. Is there a way to remove the padding on the left and right sides of the container?

Answer №1

After some investigation, I have successfully identified the issue.

I've discovered that the foundations 1170 grid is actually a 1200px grid with 15px margins on each side of every column. This design choice makes sense as it allows for wider outside margins to accommodate lower resolutions and frame gutters.

Therefore, the solution is to adjust the $row-width setting to 1200.

Answer №2

I haven't experimented with foundation, but if you wish, you can establish a new class for zero padding like this:

.nopadding {
  padding:0;
}

Additionally, I believe enabling $collapse:true should resolve the issue.
