The ratio of overall height and overall length of the temple is seen to be slightly increasing with time in the twelve century period during which these temples were constructed. Shri Sthulbhadra Sadhana Sthal has the least Height-Length ratio (0.17), and average Tunk at Parshavanath Hill has the highest length-width ratio (1.5). Average length to width ratio is 0.71.the trend line represents that the height of the temple is increased with the time due to advancement of building material and technology.
