What is a stere used for?

A stere measures the volume of stacked wood or bulk materials, commonly used in forestry and wood-processing.

Why convert stere to ton register?

Converting helps translate volume data from forestry or bulk materials into a maritime volume unit historically used for ship capacity and regulatory purposes.

Is the ton register still used today?

Ton register is largely historical and has generally been replaced by modern gross/net tonnage standards in contemporary shipping.

What Is This Tool?

This converter allows users to translate volume amounts from the stere unit, commonly used to measure stacked wood or bulk materials, to the ton register unit, historically utilized in maritime contexts to express ship internal volume. It supports cross-industry volume conversions for practical and archival purposes.

How to Use This Tool?

Input the volume value measured in stere [st]
Select stere as the source unit and ton register as the target unit
Click the convert button to get the equivalent volume in ton register [ton reg]
Use the results for volume comparisons, documentation, or regulatory tasks

Key Features

Converts volume from stere (1 m³) to ton register (100 ft³, approx. 2.83 m³)
Facilitates volume conversion between forestry and maritime measurement units
Provided with examples of conversion calculations for better understanding
Browser-based and easy to use without requiring specialized knowledge

Examples

5 stere [st] equals 1.765733336 ton register [ton reg]
10 stere [st] converts to 3.531466672 ton register [ton reg]

Common Use Cases

Selling and invoicing firewood by measuring stacked wood volume
Counting timber or woodfuel in forestry and wood-processing industries
Estimating bulk material volumes for transport or storage
Expressing vessel internal capacity as gross or net register tonnage
Calculating maritime fees based on historical ton register units
Researching old ship plans or maritime archival documents involving cargo volumes

Tips & Best Practices

Confirm that the volume measured as stere reflects stacked volume, not solid material only
Use this conversion primarily for historical or archival maritime volume contexts
Be aware of unit differences and rounding when interpreting approximate conversions
Combine results with related data when analyzing port fees or ship capacity documentation

Limitations

Stere reflects stacked volume which can vary from actual solid wood volume
Ton register is a historical unit mostly replaced by modern tonnage standards
Approximate conversions may be influenced by metric versus imperial base unit differences
