How much does a 4x4x8 weigh?

Answer 1

S

Answer 2

I just (8.30.09) weighed a few 4X4X8'. Pressure treated (.51 ground contact rated) were between 25 and 30# depending on their moisture content.

To contrast, the weight of 2X4X8 (wet, sappy, .40 treated) was 16 # each, so the 4X4X8 should weigh 32# with the same moisture content.

Obviously, the moisture content of the wood causes the largest variation, so realizing that, you can only estimate the weights to be "real heavy."

This was done with a bathroom scale and standing the wood up.

Answer 3

Depends on the type of timber and how wet it is.

Answer 4

A typical 4x4x8 piece of softwood lumber weighs approximately 40-50 pounds. This weight can vary slightly depending on the type of wood used.

Answer 5

3/4" 4X8 plywood = 65 lb.
