One board foot is defined as a piece of lumber that contains of wood. A standard visual for this is a board that is: 1 inch thick 12 inches wide 1 foot (12 inches) long How to Calculate Board Feet
Depending on which units you have measured, use one of these two formulas: Formula 1 (Mixed Units) Formula 2 (All Inches) (T" × W" × L") ÷ 144 board measure
(or board footage) is the standard unit used to measure the volume of lumber, primarily for hardwood and rough-sawn stock. Unlike linear feet (length) or square feet (area), it accounts for the board's thickness , width , and length to determine its total volume. The Fundamental Unit One board foot is defined as a piece
Multiply thickness (in) × width (in) × length (), then divide by 12. The Fundamental Unit Multiply thickness (in) × width
