Calculate Board Volume in m³ and Weight in kg

0
0 kg

This calculator helps you determine the total volume of timber boards in cubic meters and their estimated weight in kilograms.

How it Works:

The calculation is based on the following formula:

  • Total Volume (m³) = (Thickness (mm) / 1000) × (Width (mm) / 1000) × Length (m) × Quantity (pcs)
  • Estimated Weight (kg) = Total Volume (m³) × Average Wood Density (kg/m³)

The calculator uses an average softwood density of 500 kg/m³ for weight estimation.

Example:

If you have 10 boards, each with a thickness of 50 mm, a width of 150 mm, and a length of 3 m:

  • First, convert dimensions to meters:
    • Thickness: 50 mm = 0.05 m
    • Width: 150 mm = 0.15 m
  • Calculate the total volume:
    • Volume = 0.05 m × 0.15 m × 3 m × 10 pcs = 0.225 m³
  • Then, estimate the weight:
    • Weight = 0.225 m³ × 500 kg/m³ = 112.5 kg
