It all depends on the wood. Some wood is denser and heavier than others.

How is cubic board feet in timber converted into linear board feet in timber?

Cubic board feet is not a term used in the lumber industry, but it's obvious that a cubic foot is a cube that is one foot on an edge. A board foot, which is a common term used in the lumber industry is a piece of wood that is twelve inches wide, one inch thick and one foot long. Ten board feet would be a board one inch thick, twelve inches wide and ten feet long. (And no, a board doesn't have to be 12 inches wide. If it's 6 inches wide and 2 inches thick and one foot long, there is still one board foot of material there.) To make a cubic foot of wood, one might take one board foot of wood (12"x12"x1") and put it down, then stack another eleven pieces just like it on top the first one. That's 12 pieces of wood that are 1" thick for a total of 12" in height, and which are 12"x12" (length and width) giving us a volume of wood that is 12"x12"x12" or one cubic foot.

How big is a core of wood?

The size of a wood core can vary depending on the tree species and age of the tree. On average, a wood core can range in diameter from a few millimeters to several centimeters. The core is typically extracted using a tool called an increment borer to study tree growth patterns and age.


What is a Hard ball or knot of wood?

A hard ball or knot of wood is a concentrated area of dense, compact wood fiber within a tree trunk or branch. It is typically much harder than the surrounding wood due to the grain patterns being twisted and intertwined. Knots can affect the strength and appearance of wood products.


What is the density of red cedar?

How much does a 20 foot long 6 inch wide by 12 inch tall wood beam weigh?

To calculate the weight of a wood beam, you need to know the volume and the density of the wood. A 20-foot long beam with a width of 6 inches and a height of 12 inches has a volume of 10 cubic feet (20 ft x 0.5 ft x 1 ft). The weight will depend on the type of wood; for example, if using pine with an average density of about 30 lbs per cubic foot, the beam would weigh approximately 300 pounds.


How much does a ft x ft x ft wood deck weigh?

To estimate the weight of a wood deck, you need to know its dimensions in cubic feet and the type of wood used. On average, most types of wood weigh between 30 to 50 pounds per cubic foot. Therefore, to calculate the weight, multiply the volume of the deck (in cubic feet) by the weight per cubic foot of the specific wood. For example, a 10 ft x 10 ft x 1 ft deck made of 40 lb/cubic foot wood would weigh approximately 400 pounds.
