The formula used to calculate the volume is:
\[ \text{Board Feet} = \left(0.0494 \times D^2 \times L\right) - \left(0.124 \times D \times L\right) - \left(0.269 \times L\right) \]
The Scribner Decimal C Rule is a method used in the forest industry to measure the volume of a log in board feet. It applies to logs with various diameters and lengths.
Steps to calculate the volume:
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{Board Feet} = \left(0.0494 \times 20^2 \times 16\right) - \left(0.124 \times 20 \times 16\right) - \left(0.269 \times 16\right) = 224 \]
