Frequently asked questions
What units does this volume (lumber) converter support?
It supports 12 units: Cubic Meter (m³), Cubic Foot (ft³), Cubic Inch (in³), Board Foot (FBM), Thousand Board Feet (MFBM), Cord (cord), Cord (80 ft³) (cord (80)), Cord Foot (cord ft), Cunit (cunit), Cross Tie (tie), Pallet (pallet), Switch Tie (switch tie).
What is the base unit of volume (lumber)?
The SI reference unit is the cubic meter (m³). Every conversion is computed by converting the input to the base unit, then from the base unit to the target unit, so chained precision is preserved.
Is this converter accurate?
Yes. Conversion factors use exact legal definitions where they exist (for example 1 in = 25.4 mm exactly) and CODATA/ISO constants otherwise. Results are shown to up to 10 significant figures.
