Lumber volume is measured in Board Feet, which is a unit equal to a piece one inch thick and one-foot
square. Lumber volume can be tallied as:
(1)
Board Feet (BF) = (nominal thickness [inches] x nominal width [inches] x standard length
[feet])/12.
(2)
Fractions can be rounded to the nearest 1/10th of a board foot. Table 3 lists some board foot
volumes for lumber of common sizes.
