What Is This Tool?

This converter helps you transform volume values from cubic foot, a standard imperial unit used in lumber and firewood work, to the cord (80 cubic ft), a regional measurement unit for stacked firewood volume that accounts for air gaps. It supports accurate volume conversion useful in commercial, retail, and heating fuel contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the volume value in cubic foot [ft^3] that you want to convert.
  • Select cubic foot as the input unit and cord (80 cubic ft) as the output unit.
  • Click convert to obtain the equivalent volume in cord (80 cubic ft).
  • Use the result to assist in pricing, inventory, or fuel volume estimation.

Key Features

  • Converts cubic foot [ft^3] to cord (80 cubic ft) for volume lumber measurements.
  • Uses the defined conversion rate of 1 ft^3 = 0.0125 cord (80 cubic ft).
  • Supports firewood volume calculations considering stacked wood including air gaps.
  • Browser-based and easy to use without the need for manual calculations.
  • Includes example conversions for quick reference.

Examples

  • 10 cubic feet equals 0.125 cord (80 cubic ft) following the conversion formula.
  • 80 cubic feet is equal to 1 cord (80 cubic ft) using the established conversion rate.

Common Use Cases

  • Measuring stacked lumber or firewood volumes in commercial lumber and fuel sales.
  • Estimating wood volumes required for home heating with wood stoves or boilers.
  • Specifying and managing inventory for firewood suppliers and municipal fuel programs.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify which cord definition is used in your region since 80 cubic ft cord differs from the standard 128 cubic ft cord.
  • Use this tool for estimating stacked wood volume including air gaps, not solid wood mass.
  • Combine volume conversions with wood density information for better shipping or mass calculations.

Limitations

  • The cord (80 cubic ft) includes air spaces and is a non-standard variant; results may not directly compare with solid wood volumes or the standard 128 cubic foot cord.
  • Volume measurements alone might not indicate actual heating value or wood mass due to variability in stacking and air gaps.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the 80 cubic foot cord and a standard cord?
The 80 cubic foot cord is a regional volume measurement that includes air gaps in stacked wood and is smaller than the standard cord, which measures 128 cubic feet.

Why is converting cubic foot to cord (80 cubic ft) useful?
It helps in standardizing firewood volume measurements for sales, pricing, inventory, and estimating heating fuel needs in regions using the 80 cubic foot cord.

Can I use the conversion to determine the exact wood mass?
No, since the cord (80 cubic ft) includes air spaces, volume alone does not accurately reflect the wood's mass or heating value.

Key Terminology

Cubic foot [ft^3]
A unit of volume equal to a cube one foot on each side, used in lumber measurement and convertible to board feet.
Cord (80 cubic ft)
A non-standard volumetric unit used to measure stacked firewood volume including air gaps, defined as 80 cubic feet.
Board feet
A unit representing volume of lumber where 1 cubic foot equals 12 board feet, often used in pricing and inventory.
