The formula used to calculate board feet is:
\[ \text{Board Feet (BF)} = \frac{\text{Thickness (in)} \times \text{Width (in)} \times \text{Length (in)}}{144} \]
This calculator converts the dimensions of lumber in inches to board feet by multiplying the thickness, width, and length in inches, and then dividing by 144.
Steps to calculate the board feet:
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{Board Feet (BF)} = \frac{2 \times 6 \times 144}{144} = 12 \text{ BF} \]
| Thickness (inches) | Width (inches) | Length (inches) | Board Feet (BF) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 6 | 12 | 1.00 |
| 2 | 6 | 24 | 2.00 |
| 2 | 6 | 36 | 3.00 |
