Board Foot
The board foot or board-foot is a unit of measurement for the volume of lumber in the United States and Canada. It equals the volume of a length of a board, one foot wide and thick. Board foot can be abbreviated as FBM (for "foot, board measure"), BDFT, or BF. A thousand board feet can be abbreviated as MFBM, MBFT, or MBF. Similarly, a million board feet can be abbreviated as MMFBM, MMBFT, or MMBF. Until 1970s in Australia and New Zealand the terms super foot and superficial foot were used with the same meaning. One board foot equals: * 1 ft × 1 ft × 1 in * 12 in × 12 in × 1 in * 144 in3 * 1/12 ft3 * ≈ * ≈ * ≈ or steres * 1/1980 Petrograd Standard of board The board foot is used to measure rough lumber (before drying and planing with no adjustments) or planed/surfaced lumber.
