Answer:

With a cord and fractional parts of a cord or cubic meter (AKA a stere).

Answer:

Firewood is traditionally measured by the "cord".

A full cord is a pile of stacked wood 4' x 4' x 8' (128 cu. ft.)

A face cord is 4' x 1.5' x 8' (42 cu. ft.)

Packages of wood at about 1 cubic foot are available at campgrounds and service stations

What is the thermal conductivity of timber?

What is the conductivity of timber?Using the metric system of units (SI) -The thermal conductivity of softwood, (and most 'engineered' softwood products, such as softwood plywood, or OSB) is -0.13 W/K.mThe typical thermal conductivity of hardwood is -0.19 W/K.m


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 much does 1 cubic meter of timber wood weigh?

The weight of 1 cubic meter of timber wood can vary depending on the type of wood, moisture content, and density. However, on average, 1 cubic meter of timber wood weighs around 700 to 900 kg.


Is softwood an insulator or a conductor?

Softwood is generally considered to be an insulator because it has a low thermal and electrical conductivity. This means that softwood does not easily allow heat or electricity to pass through it, making it a good insulating material for certain applications.


Which type of wood will burn faster - hardwood or softwood?

Softwood burns faster than hardwood because softwood has a lower density and lower moisture content, allowing it to ignite and burn more quickly. Hardwood burns slower and hotter due to its higher density, making it a good choice for long-lasting fires.
