For sawmills and cabinet shops: enter thickness, width, length and quantity for each batch. All dimensions use the selected mm, cm or inch unit. Volume is the sum of dimension products times quantity; one board foot is 144 cubic inches. Exact geometry only: no grading, cutting yield, nominal-size conversion or commercial tally rounding.

Example

How it works

Total mixed rectangular lumber batches in board feet and cubic metres.

V = Σ(t × w × l × n); 1 bd ft = 144 in³ = 0.002359737216 m³

Common mistakes and quick fixes

Thickness · Width · Length

Mistake: Changing units and assuming the entered numbers were converted.

Fix: Numbers stay unchanged. Check the new unit and enter the intended measurement, or select an example for that system.

Should a nominal 2×4 be entered as 2×4?

Mistake: Treating a result as valid outside the described scope.

Fix: Only if that is the agreed measurement basis. For physical volume, use measured dimensions; invoice conventions may differ.

Limits and key assumptions

  • Only if that is the agreed measurement basis. For physical volume, use measured dimensions; invoice conventions may differ.
  • Exact geometry only: no grading, cutting yield, nominal-size conversion or commercial tally rounding.
  • Displayed results may be rounded; rounding does not add measurement precision.
