How It Calculates the Results

The calculator uses the standard formula for calculating board feet:

Board Feet = (Width in inches x Length in feet x Thickness in inches) / 12

It converts the volume into board feet, which is a common unit of measure for lumber volume.

Limitations

This calculator assumes that the measurements are perfectly accurate and does not account for any irregularities or defects in the wood. It is intended for theoretical calculations and may not reflect the actual volume if the lumber is not uniformly cut.
