Lineal metres = Square metre/Width of the timber.So linear metres = 20/0.083 = 240.96 metres.
You need to know the width (in metres) of the decking. Then Linear (or lineal) Metres * Width = Square metres so Linear Metres = Square Metrage / Width
Actually, linear meters and meters are the same. So, you have 145,770 linear meters of timber.
The lineal (or linear) metres refer to the length. You need to know the height and width to convert to cubic metres.
The answer depends on the cross-sectional area of the timber.
35 square meters is equal to:376.7 square feet41.86 square yards0.008 acres3.767 squares of timber
The term lineal meter is used to describe the nominal length of an item. For example carpet maybe produced on a loom perhaps 4m wide. A lineal meter of carpet would be 1m long x 4m wide. Thus 4 lineal meters of this particular carpet would cover 16 square meters. In a similar fashion timber is often sold by the lineal meter which describes the cost per meter of length of the board. The board would have a width and if you were to the purchase timber to build a deck you would need to calculate the number of lengths of boards to cover the area of deck having taken into account the width of the board. When ordering you would ask for X lineal meters of the particular board. Obviously its important to know the particular specifications of the material you intend to use. For example not all carpet is produced on a 4m loom and so it is important to understand the effect of substituting different materials so that a material shortage or wastage does not occur.
At what thickness ! 1700 m2 of timber in a 4cm layer needs four times as much timber than a layer of 1cm !
Area covered = 180m * 0.08 m = 14.4 sq metres.
lineal (or linear) metre, this refers to length or distance. this avoids confusion of square metres or cubic metres. there is no need to use this term in normal circumstances. timber can be sold by the cubic metre for fire wood, square metre for flooring or linear metre for framing
The answer depends on the quality of the fence - the timber used, the joinery, height and so on - as well as where in the world you are buying it.

The question, as stated, cannot be answered sensibly. A square metre is a measure of area, with dimensions [L2]. A cubic metre is a measure of volume, with dimensions [L3]. The two measure different things and basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information. If you have the length and breadth of the timber, you will need the average width (or height).
