What is a cubic meter of edged boards?

How many edged boards are in one cube - Photo

Edged board- lumber with cleanly cut edges, without bark residues. Width edged boards is at least twice as thick.

Since the fee is charged per volume in cubic meters, let us recall the geometric formula for its definition:

W * H * D = volume.

Everything is calculated in meters

To find out how many boards are in one cube:

1 / (W * H * D) = number of boards in 1m3 (cube)

Where, Sh- Width, IN- Height, D- Length

Translation: 1mm = 0.001m, 10mm = 0.01m, 100mm = 0.1m

Below is a table of some types of edged boards and their volume

When purchasing lumber in small quantities, you can get confused with decimal places, namely rounding. An experienced seller will round the resulting number to the 3rd decimal place. An experienced buyer will round by GOST y - up to 0.000001 cubic meters and will remind the seller that up to 0.001 cubic meters. meters are rounded only batch of boards. The most common quantity - from several boards to 2-4 cubic meters - is not made up into a batch. In order not to offend either one or the other, round to 4 decimal places.

Then the resulting volume is multiplied by the cost of 1 m3 (cube). And this is where the number of decimal places can significantly affect costs.

1 edged board 32 mm thick, 200 mm wide and 6 m long(32Х200Х6000) has volume

• 0.032 * 0.2 * 6 = 0.0384 cube

30 boards will have the volume

• 0.0384 * 30 = 1.152 cubes

If the seller rounds the volume of 1 board to 0.04 cubic meters, he will additionally receive income:

• 0.04 * 30 = 1.2 cubes
• 1.2 - 1.152 = 0.048 cubic meters

Selling these 0.048 "air" cubes makes it easier on the buyer's wallet

Cost may vary depending on the type of wood. The grade decreases with a decrease in quality: the presence of wood defects and deviations from standard sizes. If batten has a curvature, is narrower or thinner than the standard by 3-5 mm, it will not be completely useful. Visual inspection of lumber is as important as accurate determination of volume.

Covered area of ​​edged board

To find out how much lumber you need, calculating the board in a cube will help you. The above formula is based on the definition of area

W * D = area.

Having calculated the covered area, all that remains is to multiply it by required thickness boards

W * D * 0.022; 0.025; 0.032; 0.04 m and so on.

All that remains is to see how many boards there are in one cube and determine required quantity. Just in case, print or memorize the table above.

You also need to take into account the future cutting of the material.Flooring and lining boards have an overlapping tongue and groove, which is taken into account in the cubic capacity, but is not included in the covered area. A couple of boards are needed have in reserve .

Determining the volume of an unedged board

How many unedged boards are in one cubic meter - Photo

Unedged board , that is, not having a rectangular cross-section along the entire length, is significantly cheaper and is widely used for constructing various types of rough sheathing and temporary fencing.

It is important to understand that the upper and lower surfaces of such a board must be sawn along the entire length. If one face is not sawn, then it is already croaker. The definition of cubic capacity of such lumber differs precisely in that it does not have the correct geometric shape.

Current standards establish several ways to account for unedged material, and it is practically impossible to calculate exactly how many boards are in 1 cube.

1. Batch.
2. Piece by piece.
3. Sampling method.

In batch In this case, the boards are tightly placed in a bag of the correct shape with further measurements. Further calculations are made using the standard formula for determining volume. Using different coefficients.

Piece measurement made using average measurements of height and width. The largest and smallest dimensions in meters are added and divided in half.

(Wmax + Wmin)/2 * (Bmax+ Bmin)/2 * D = volume, m3

Where, Sh- Width, IN- Height, D- Length

If it is visually clear that the wood is fresh and, accordingly, damp (humidity above 20%), then the seller is obliged to reduce the total volume by multiplying the resulting cubic capacity by the coefficient:

• 0,96 for coniferous species
• 0,95 for deciduous.

Sampling method used to determine the volume of a large batch of unedged lumber. When loading, for example, into a truck vehicle, every fifth, tenth or twentieth board is measured using the second method.

The resulting volume is multiplied by five, ten, twenty. Loading continues until the next control board. It is also practiced to select control boards into a separate pile. The count is made after loading is completed.

Calculating the volume of timber: how much timber is in a cube?

Calculation of the amount of timber in one cube - Photo

A timber differs from an edged board only in that all its edges or two opposite ones have same size: more than 0.05m in thickness and 0.013m in width. The formula for determining its volume is standard

R timber size	Volume of one beam	Timber in 1m3 (cube)
100×100×6000	0.06 m³	16 pcs.
100×150×6000	0.09 m³	11 pcs.
150×150×6000	0.135 m³	7 pcs.
100×180×6000	0.108 m³	9 pcs.
150×180×6000	0.162 m³	6 pcs.
180×180×6000	0.1944 m³	5 pcs.
100×200×6000	0.12 m³	8 pcs.
150×200×6000	0.18 m³	5.5 pcs.
180×200×6000	0.216 m³	4.5 pcs.
200×200×6000	0.24 m³	4 pcs.
250×200×6000	0.3 m³	3 pcs.

W * T * D = timber volume, m3.

To find out how much timber is in one cube

1 / (W * T * D) = amount of timber in 1 m3 (cube)

Where, Sh- Width, T- thickness, D- Length

Translation: 1mm = 0.001m, 10mm=0.01m, 100mm=0.1m

When purchasing timber, the volume must be determined individually, since the timber in the stack is laid with spacers. Measurements of such a stack and calculation of cubic capacity using the given formula invariably lead to a significant overestimation of the volume.

Length of 1 cube of timber (as well as any edged lumber) in meters is determined by dividing the unit by thickness and width. For example, you need to find out how much timber is in one cube - the edge is 180 mm.

1 / (0.18 * 0.18) = 30 meters 87 cm.

1 meter of such timber will have the following volume.

0.18 * 0.18 * 1 = 0.0324 m3.

These calculations may be needed when determining the costs of funds and materials.

Volume of construction logs: how many logs are in one cube?

How many logs are in one cube: calculation - Photo

Log structures are and will be relevant. Determining the volume of a round material depends on the method of its production.

• Hand-barked construction logs.
• Construction logs, rounded on special machines.

A section of a trunk for manual trimming has the shape of a slightly truncated cone, so the formula for the volume of a cylinder is used, but with some features.

3.14 * r2 * L = log volume, m3

Here
r- averaged radius, calculated as (r1+r2)/2, r1 is the radius at one end of the log, r2 is the radius at the other end of the log.
L- log length.
3,14 - constant "Pi".

A rounded log naturally has a cylindrical shape and is calculated using the above formula. But here the radius is measured at any end once. Determining the number of logs in 1 cube is determined similarly to timber.

1 / (3.14 * r 2 * L) = Number of logs in 1m3 (cube)

Blanks for construction logs are measured in the same way.

The radius (diameter divided in half) is measured without taking into account the thickness of the tree bark. In practice, manual calculations are not carried out. They use special tables compiled in a cubic book. They are also available in electronic form.

In conclusion, it should be noted that lumber for critical work, standard in size, wood species and moisture content, should be purchased at large sites. Small producers, as a rule, are not allowed there due to the lack of appropriate control over the quality of their products.

Log structures are and will be relevant. Determining the volume of a round material depends on the method of its production.

• Hand-barked construction logs.
• Construction logs, rounded on special machines.

A section of a trunk for manual trimming has the shape of a slightly truncated cone, so the formula for the volume of a cylinder is used, but with some features.

3.14 * r 2 * L = log volume, m3

In conclusion, it should be noted that lumber for critical work, standard in size, wood species and moisture content, should be purchased at large sites. Small producers, as a rule, are not allowed there due to the lack of appropriate control over the quality of their products.

One of the ways to make reasonable savings is to purchase building materials in the required quantities, no more and no less. A private developer knows well how many and what samples he needs to purchase to complete a specific job. But the difficulty is that, with rare exceptions, boards are not sold individually - only in batches (packs). And no one buys several pieces for construction. How to determine how many m3 of wood to purchase?

How to choose lumber?

1. Understand the types of necessary blanks, based on their specifics further application. The product is classified as edged board, both floor and unedged. If both wood is needed, then the purchase volume will have to be calculated for each type of product separately.

2. Determine the required linear parameters of the products and convert them into one dimension. Since cubic capacity is m3, to make it easier to calculate later, length, width and thickness should be written down in meters.

Boards are required during the construction process different lengths. If they differ greatly in this parameter, then it is worth calculating the cubic capacity for each group separately - this way you can reduce waste during cutting. It is advisable, before counting, to find out what length the products are sold on the building materials market. The fact is that each manufacturer may have its own standard sizes for them. It is by these values ​​that you should group the products, and then calculate how many and what kind of boards you will need. If you make a table for yourself and think everything through well, you can save a lot of money.

Features of calculating the volume of lumber

There are standard tables designed to determine the volume of various workpieces (logs, boards, timber). You can also calculate using calculators that are available on thematic sites. But in practice, in “field” conditions, you have to work in “manual” mode. That is, calculate the cubic capacity of the boards using only a tape measure, since in the market stacks are not laid exactly 1 m 3 in length.

1. Edged board.

Example (for those who forgot school).

• Let's calculate the approximate (since errors are inevitable when taking measurements) cubic capacity of a “magpie” 6 m long and 200 mm wide. We do the translation, it turns out: width – 0.2; thickness – 0.04 (m).
• Therefore, the cubic capacity of 1 edged board with given parameters– 6 x 0.2 x 0.04 = 0.048 m3. The technique is simple, the main thing is not to forget to convert all dimensions to “m”.
• If you need to calculate how many boards are in a “cube”, then the following arithmetic operation is performed - 1 m 3 is divided by cubic capacity.
• In our example – 1/0.048 = 20.83. Round to the nearest whole number – 21 pieces.

2. Unedged products.

The side edges are not processed. Products are usually placed in packs in mixed grades. This means that wood can also be different breeds, and standard sizes (especially the width of the workpiece) vary. Calculating the volume of the stack in this case is quite difficult. You should:

• Carefully inspect the pack. The task is to choose the 2 most even boards. Moreover, one is the narrowest, the other is the widest.
• Take all dimensions from each and calculate the average values ​​for length, width and thickness.

Example. The width of one piece is 15 cm, the other is 35. Fold and divide in half - (15 +35)/2 = 25 cm. For further calculations, convert to meters - 0.25. Other average linear parameters are determined using the same method.

What is the peculiarity of calculations for non- edged lumber? They have uneven side edges. Consequently, due to the curvature, the fit of the samples to each other is not so tight. The result is gaps and voids. Therefore, a correction factor is taken, which largely depends on the humidity and type of wood. Its minimum value is 0.62, maximum - 0.7.

In practice, the quality of materials is determined “by eye”, so the average correction is taken - 0.66. To get the final result, you need to multiply the resulting cubic capacity by the specified coefficient.

If you work with a large stack, the likelihood of errors in calculations increases sharply. In order not to overpay, it is advisable to store the boards in packs of 10 pieces. For each of them, measurements are taken with subsequent calculations of cubic capacity.

Using the same method, calculations are made for obapole (croaker). The only difference is the coefficient. Its value lies in the range of 0.48 – 0.74.

When is the preparation made? round timber, first of all, they try to accurately calculate its cubic capacity.

The measurement is made in the upper cut, where the diameter will be slightly smaller. When measuring trunks that have a cross-section other than round, they try to take measurements along the narrowest section, passing through the center of the annual rings of the wood.

This technique is used because it allows you to most accurately estimate how much edged lumber, which has the greatest value in woodworking, will be produced from one log. Obviously, they will be cut based on the diameter of the top cut.

For the same reason, the ridge part of the trunk, where the difference between the larger and smaller cut diameters is large, is preferred to be discarded and not used in the preparation. In any case, the sawmill will accept timber from the top cut.

When determining the length, measurements are made with an accuracy of 10 cm, and the length is rounded down. Such precision is achieved due to the fact that when felling logs, two cuts are usually made - one higher, the other lower. First they do the bottom one, then the top one - on the other side. falls in the direction where the top of his head leans. The cuts are made so that the bottom one is on the side where the trunk should fall.

In this case, the upper cut is made from the other side, standing in the direction opposite to the most likely fall. When subsequently sawing the cane, they usually use a saw to make one cut, but often a cutting error is allowed - it can go slightly obliquely, which is why there is such a large error.

Calculation according to cubic meter

In accordance with it, you can determine the volume of each log by taking measurements and selecting the value from the table. In the table, the diameter of the trunk is in increments of 1-2 cm, and the length is in increments of 10 cm. Of course, using the entire cubature table is not entirely convenient.

This table provides data for the most common top cut diameters and lengths. Usually it is necessary to calculate the volume for logs up to 6 meters long. It is logs of this length that fit into most standard bodies of ordinary ones, not specialized ones like timber trucks or timber trailers for tractors; it is in sizes up to 6 meters that logs are bucked.

Naturally, when timber is delivered to a sawmill, there is no talk of any “approximate” calculations, and it is necessary to apply the full GOST in the final calculation - after all, this is both sawmills and money for foresters who love accurate calculations.

Calculation by formula

V=πd²l/4, where d is the diameter of the trunk in the upper cut, l is the length of the log, π = 3.14 - for our calculations, greater accuracy of this constant is not needed.

This is convenient when you don’t have GOST at hand, but only have it. With large volumes of work, even from three or four machines, counting in this way will take a lot of time, in addition, this technique is not standardized and is not used as an argument in financial disputes.

Timber and board - one of the oldest building materials, but it does not lose its relevance today. At the same time, the cost of these lumber forces buyers to be careful about the accuracy of calculating the required quantity.

Now you can find on the World Wide Web the necessary tables for calculating the required number of cubic meters of building materials, but a skillful owner must be able to carry out the calculation independently.

How many boards are there in a cube of 50 by 150 by 6000

As you probably already understood, the calculation of lumber is carried out in cubic meters. At the same time, a cube of board and timber may have different overall dimensions. Therefore, for an accurate purchase, you need to understand the size of this cube for more accurate calculation. The most common cube of lumber has dimensions of 50x150x6000 mm.

We calculate the required volume easily and simply

It is very easy to calculate cubic meters of boards or timber. To do this, you need to have basic knowledge of geometry, which we were taught at school. Thus, to determine the required cubic capacity, you need to initially multiply the width (l), thickness (s) and length (b).

For example: s boards × l boards x b boards = 50 mm × 150 mm x 6000 mm = 45000 cm/cube.

We remember that a cubic meter is equal to 1,000,000 cubic cm, that is, 100 cm x 100 cm x 100 cm.

1000000 cc/cm: 45000 cc/cm = 22.22 pieces boards in one cube.

How many boards in 1 cube table 6m:

Board size	Volume of 1st board	Boards in 1 cube in pieces	Square meters in 1 cube
Fifty
Board 50x 100x 6000	0.03 m³	33 pcs.	20 m²
Board 50x 120x 6000	0.036 m³	27 pcs.	20 m²
Board 50x 150x 6000	0.045 m³	22 pcs.	20 m²
Board 50x 180x 6000	0.054 m³	18 pcs.	20 m²
Board 50x 200x 6000	0.06 m³	16 pcs.	20 m²
Board 50x 250x 6000	0.075 m³	13 pcs.	20 m²

As you can see, calculate required quantity 6-meter boards are very easy. Now you know how to determine how much meter boards in a cube. Depending on the size, you simply substitute required sizes into a simple formula and get the finished result.
