Lumber volume is measured in Board Feet, which is a unit equal to a piece one inch thick and one-foot square. Lumber volume can be tallied as:

(1) Board Feet (BF) = (nominal thickness [inches] x nominal width [inches] x standard length [feet])/12.

(2) Fractions can be rounded to the nearest 1/10^th of a board foot. Table 3 lists some board foot volumes for lumber of common sizes.
