Weight of 12x12 timber?
12x12 timber, of what wood species? And what is the moisture content of this wood? The question above cannot be answered without more information. A 12"x12"x8' piece of Balsa timber will weigh much less than a 12"x12"x8' Teak or Red Oak. In order to calculate the weight of 12x12 timber, you would need to know the specific weight of the wood, usually based on a board foot weight, then you could calculate how many board feet are in the piece of 12x12 you want to weigh. To get the board foot amount you would use this formula Thickness"*Width"*Length'/12 = Board Foot. So my piece listed above would be 96 board feet. Now that you know how much wood you want the weight of, you need to determine the moisture content, and also the wood species.
How many 2x4's do you need to frame a 12x12 foot room?
Builders will normally order 1 per foot when framing 16" on center to cover the cripples and corners. This does not include the wood required for the bottom and top plate.

Weight of a 2x4?
2x4's have a weight that varies based upon wood and length. With this said, the weight generally runs at about one point twenty-eight pounds per foot in length. Thus, an eight foot 2x4 would run about eleven pounds.
How many pounds does a cubic meter of wood weigh?
Each type of wood has a different weight per unit volume. Some commonly used kinds of wood are pine, fir, spruce and cedar. Pine weight ranges from 27 to 45 pounds per cubic foot. For one cubic meter, multiply by 27. Douglas fir weighs about 33 pounds per cubic foot. Spruce (dry) weighs 28 pounds/cubic foot. Red cedar weighs 24 pounds/cu. foot.

The 13 foot piece is the shortest.
Which force keeps a piece of wood floating?
It is caused by the difference in density between wood and water.One cubic foot of wood is usually lighter than one cubic foot of water, hence the water goes up a little but the wood goes up more.The overall density of the wood block is less than that of the water, so it floats.The basic principle is that when a solid object is immersed in a fluid, the solid displaces some of the fluid. This causes an upthrust on the solid, equal to the weight of fluid displaced. If the upthrust is equal to the weight of the solid it floats.
Unit weight pressure treated southern yellow pine?
The southern yellow pine's weight varies between 32 lbs. per cubic foot and 38 lbs. per cubic foot. The weight of the treatment, if there is one, must be added on top of that, then must be adjusted for the size of the piece of wood.
How much does a piece of wood weigh?
A 'piece of wood' is very vague. It all depends on the size of the piece and what type of wood it is. Strictly, the weight is the volume of the piece multiplied by the density of the particular wood. Wood floats in water therefore it weighs less than water. Water weighs about 80 pounds per cubic foot. If the wood is wet (freshly cut) it might be 20 to 25 percent water or about 20 pounds per cubic foot. If it is old and dry it might be 5 percent water or about 4 pounds per cubic foot. To this you need to add the weight of the dry wood itself. The weight of completely dry wood is related to the compactness of the cells which depends on the species of wood. "Softwoods"such as balsa or pine are relatively light (large cells with lots of empty space in between which is why they are "soft") while "hardwoods" like oak, walnut or ebony are relatively heavy (small cells packed closely togehter which makes them "hard"). Completely dry pine might weigh 10 pounds per cubic foot (this is a guess, not a fact) while completely dry walnut might weigh 30 to 40 pounds per cubic foot (another guess). Wood still floats even when completely wet so the total weight will always be less than the weight of the same volume of water.
