Southern Yellow Pine typically weighs between 35 to 40 pounds per cubic foot, depending on the specific species and moisture content. When converted to board feet, this weight averages around 2.5 to 3.0 pounds per board foot. The weight can vary based on factors such as the age of the tree and how the wood has been processed.
A 2x12x12 foot board would not be measured in square feet but cubic feet and there would be 240 feet3
A board foot is a unit of volume, while a square foot is a unit of area. The two units are therefore incompatible.

To calculate the number of board feet needed for a 500 square foot ceiling using 1x6x12 tongue and groove boards, first determine the coverage of each board. A 1x6 board is typically 5.5 inches wide and 12 feet long, covering about 5.5 square feet. Therefore, for a 500 square foot ceiling, you would need approximately 91 boards (500 sq ft ÷ 5.5 sq ft/board). Each board is 1 board foot per linear foot, so the total board feet needed would be roughly 91 board feet.
a foot of 4x6 Douglas fir will weigh about 2lbs. to 3 1/2 lbs. per running foot depending on the moisture content of the particular piece of lumber
Freshly treated Southern yellow pine treated with .60 CCA pcf will weigh 4.5-5 lbs per board foot.
A pressure-treated deck board, typically made of wood like Southern Yellow Pine, weighs around 2.5 to 3.5 pounds per linear foot, depending on its thickness and moisture content. For a 16-foot board, this would equate to approximately 40 to 56 pounds. It's important to note that the specific weight can vary based on the type of wood and the level of treatment.
The cost of plywood is determined by "board feet," that is one board foot of plywood is one cubic foot. The variety of the wood, the number of plys or layers, the grade of wood, and the type of glue used are all determinant factors in the cost.So, to determine the cost of one gram, you would need to weigh one board foot of the variety you choose. Determine the quantity that would weigh one gram, and divide the cost of one board foot by the number of grams in that board foot.

38 lbs The Specific gravity of Walnut is .64 so it would weigh about 40 pounds per cubic foot, depending on the moisture content. Therefore a board foot would weigh between 3.3 & 3.5 pounds.
On average, 1 board foot of white pine weighs around 2.5 to 3 pounds. The weight can vary depending on the moisture content and specific gravity of the wood.
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.
Machinery's Handbook lists the density of southern yellow pine at from 52~55 pounds per cubic foot green and 36~41 pounds per cubic foot air dried.You might have guessed that the weight of a chunk of wood will vary a bit depending on its moisture content. (Resin content will affect density as well.) Was it just sawed, or did it just come out of the kiln? Southern yellow pine can weigh 23 to 37 poundsper cubic foot out of the wood storage shed, according to the chart in the Engineering ToolBox. Though that might seem a bit low given other estimates, you can use the link below to educate yourself.If you consult Reade Advanced Materials, they say 45 pounds per cubic foot dry. The Wooden Boat Forum says 43 pounds per cubic foot. The sum of these citations might yield confusion, but a good estimate of a bit over 40 pounds per cubic foot is "safe" and quite usable/useful.
2x4's weigh approximately 1.21 pounds per foot. So an 8 Foot 2x4 = 9.68 pounds 12 Foot 2x4 = 14.52 pounds 14 Foot 2x4 = 16.94 pounds Just take 1.21 pounds times the length of the board and this will give it it's overall weight. This is for pine boards.
There are several factors to consider in the correct answer of your question, wet or dry weight can alter the exactitude of the aforementioned, but you can start at 3.4 pounds per board foot for Red Maple, wet it will weigh more than when its dry.
One board foot of maple hardwood typically weighs between 3 to 4 pounds, depending on the specific type and moisture content of the wood. On average, hard maple has a density of about 45-50 pounds per cubic foot, which translates to the weight of one board foot. Factors such as the method of drying and the specific variety of maple can slightly affect the weight.
Once it's kiln dried, yellow pine is one of the lighter woods. I wouldn,t think a 4x12x10' should weigh much more than 60 lbs. Maybe not that much. Sorry, but the above answer is incorrect. Actually the weight of dried southern yellow pine is around 3 lbs per board foot. A 4x12x10' contains 40 board feet and therefore weighs approximately 120 lbs. The above answer is conservative. The exact answer is yellow pine has a density of roughly 40lbs/ft^3. A 4x12 is actually 3.5"x11.25" = 39.38in^2. Therefore for a 10ft section: (40lb/ft^3) x ((39.38in^2)/144) x (10') = 109.4 lbs.
