Board 25x150 how many pieces are in a cube. Edged board. How to go from cubes to pieces

For the production of lumber such as edged boards, they use different breeds trees. There is no bark on such a board, which makes it suitable for construction and furniture making.

The main difference between edged boards and other types is the complete absence of wane and bark, this distinguishes it from unedged boards with wane

The most popular trees used for making edged boards are usually coniferous trees

Type of board by type of material (raw materials)

Depending on the moisture content in it, the board can be wet or dry. The quality of the finished board is greatly influenced by the type of wood. Each tree has its own unique characteristics, but they are all united by their natural origin and environmental friendliness.

Main standard sizes of edged lumber:

Standard length is 6.0 meters (can be 4.0 and 3.0 m.)

As for construction, boards made of coniferous species tree. These materials have a denser structure and have excellent thermal conductivity.

Sorting of edged boards:

Besides, pine board has antiseptic qualities, which makes it an ideal material for internal finishing works. In addition, such a board is inexpensive, which also attracts developers to use it in the construction of a house.

Edged boards in the construction of timber houses

During installation, edged boards are used for:

rough finishing (for siding, drywall, etc.)

rafter system sheathing

laying the subfloor (finishing tongue and groove is laid on it)

In the production of edged boards they use different variants sawed it up. The highest quality is radial sawing, which uses a durable core of log impregnated with resin. As a result, such a board does not undergo deformation during drying. The price of such a board will be higher, since the best part of the log is used for its manufacture.

With semi-radial cutting, material waste is significantly reduced, which reduces the price of the finished edged board. The thickness of the board when dissolving also varies. Edged board can be produced in 25, 30, 40 mm. The lowest quality and cheapest board is obtained by tangential cutting. Such material is subject to swelling and shrinkage, but this cutting method gives the largest yield of material, which significantly reduces its price.

The price for edged boards is taken per cube or 1 square meter

Name Dimensions, mm Price, rub/m3*
Edged board 25-200 x6000
5700
Edged board 25- 200 x4000 5600
Edged board 25-70 x2000,3000 5200

The difference in cost between edged or unedged area is 1,500 rubles per cubic meter, think about whether it’s worth saving

Edged boards are more often used in production construction work and in the manufacture of furniture products. When purchasing such material, you must choose only a dry board, otherwise it may be subject to deformation in the future.

How many pieces of edged board 25x150x6000 are in a cube?

Measurement wood materials in volume measures (namely, the cubic meter is one of them) there is a fairly long tradition. For accounting and loading and unloading purposes, this is quite sufficient. But when we plan specific work, it would be useful for us to know exactly how many boards we need and how many we received.

Cubic meter

Logs, boards and beams can be very different in size, so it is difficult to keep a piece count of wood materials. A standard unit of measurement is needed that is suitable for any type of material, regardless of its geometric parameters. The volume measure was best suited for these purposes.

A cubic meter is a three-dimensional cube, each side of which is equal to 1 meter. Volume is also calculated quite simply - the product of length, width and height. As you can see, it differs from the area only in the presence of an additional component.

How to move from cubic meters to pieces?

Let's say we have a 25x150x6000 edged board - how many pieces are there in a cube?

The calculation procedure is approximately as follows:

  • First, we need to find out the volume of one board, which, in our case, will be equal to 0.025 x 0.15 x 6 = 0.0225 cubic meters.
  • Knowing this indicator, it is no longer difficult to estimate the number of boards in 1 cubic meter - just divide 1 by 0.0225. We get 44.4 boards.
  • Please note that sellers are often prone to rounding the volume occupied by one board, as a result of which the number of boards per cubic meter may be less than calculated. At a minimum, you will pay for 44.4 boards, but you will receive exactly 44. On one cubic meter this is not so important, but when ordering in dozens it will result in serious losses.
  • When planning any work, it is advisable to provide for the availability of a certain supply of materials.

How to calculate the order quantity?

Here, as a rule, the movement is the opposite - from piece quantities to cubic meters. Let's say our goal is to cover the wall of a bathhouse with boards. Let's try to determine how many boards we need:

  • The need for the number of boards is best determined based on the area of ​​the surface to be treated. However, even the area is not always needed - the length of the board is taken according to the length of the wall, and the quantity is calculated according to the height. If the length of our wall is 4 m, then the board should be taken the same length.
  • The height of the board is chosen by you depending on the convenience of work. Let's say we decided that 150 mm is just right. If the height of our wall is 2.25 m, then we will need 15 boards 4 m long to cover it (plus some extra).
  • We also choose the thickness of the board ourselves, depending on the structural requirements and the required thermal insulation parameters. Let's assume 25 cm for summer bath that's enough for us.
  • Thus, the volume of one board will be 0.025 x 0.15 x 4 = 0.015 cubic meters. As we have already found out, we need 15 boards. Now, converting this need into cubic meters will not be difficult - we will need 0.015 x 15 = 0.225 cubic meters of boards of the given parameters for one wall (without taking into account the stock).

Lumber made from round timber, in which all sides are sawn, is called edged. All of them, including boards 25 x 150 x 6000, are used for repair and construction, and according to GOST 8486-86, have a cross-sectional size and length. Therefore, to find out the cost of the material, you need to find out the quantity cubic meters on the board, and how many of them (pieces) are in one cube.

Calculating the cubic capacity of the board

You can use a special calculator to determine cubic volume. If you don’t have one at hand, then you need to use a special formula:

V=a × b × l, where:

  • a – thickness;
  • b – width;
  • l – length.

To find out how many cubes are in one 25x150x6000 board, we use our dimensions. All cross-sectional indicators are indicated in millimeters, so they must first be converted to meters. Based on this:

  • a = 0.025 m;
  • b = 0.15 m;
  • l = 6 m.

The calculation result will look like this:

  • 0.025 x 0.15 x 6 = 0.0225

It turns out in a 6-meter “twenty heel” - 0.022 m 3.

How many boards in a cube

You can find out without any calculations the amount of material (pieces) in 1 cubic meter using special tables. But the table values ​​are approximate (approximate) and they do not quite correctly show the real yield of lumber.

Therefore, a more reliable option would be to calculate using a special formula:

1 m 3: cubic. volume 1 lumber

We make the calculation:

1:0.022 = 45.45 pcs.

It turns out 46 boards in 1 m3.

How many meters in one cube

For those who plan to carry out construction or renovation work First of all, you need to know how much lumber is needed to implement certain plans. To calculate the volume finishing material, you need to find out how many meters are in one cube. To do this, 1 m3 should be divided by the thickness of the lumber (1: a).

We make the calculation:

Accordingly, 1 m 3 of planks, 2.5 centimeters thick and 6 meters long, is equal to 40 m 2.

The cubic capacity of one edged board with a thickness of 25 mm

The calculation algorithm for lumber is the same, regardless of the characteristics and characteristics of the tree. The table of calculations will help you find out the cubic volume of edged lumber 25 x 150 x 6000, as well as the number of boards and square meters 1 m3.

Purchasing materials by eye is nonsense, and no self-respecting owner would do this. In order to competently draw up an estimate and estimate how much construction or major renovation, you need to determine how much of a particular product will be needed. It’s more complicated with boards - they are not sold individually, but are sold (as well as stored) in batches, the volume of which is expressed in m³. But the number of pieces, as a rule, is “tied” to the area covered, that is, to m². Let's figure out how to determine how many boards will be in one cube.

Why are the boards 4 and 6 meters? The calculation method given below does not change for any length. The fact is that the indicated parameters are the most popular ones. Manufacturers focus on the dimensions of platforms and freight cars, so it is more profitable for them to supply boards 6 m long. But the buyer is more interested in boards four meters long, since a truck with an extended body is enough to transport them.

To transport 6 meter boards you need a road train; This means that the cost of delivering lumber to the site will increase. And the maneuverability of such transport is significantly limited. For example, it makes no sense to deliver boards to a dacha area, given the narrowness of the alleys.

The procedure for calculating the number of boards in a cube

You just need to remember high school. The so-called “cube” (a common name for a volume measure) is the product of the linear parameters of any volumetric object. That is, its length, width and height (in this case, thickness).

  • The edges of one of the boards in the stack are measured. This results in width and thickness. The length is known - 4 or 6 m.
  • All measured parameters are recalculated into one dimension. Since we are talking about a cube, that is, m3, all of them (including width and thickness) are indicated in meters.
  • The “cubic capacity” of the workpiece is determined.
  • 1 m³ is divided by the resulting value. The result is the number of boards in the cube.

The numerator of the fraction does not necessarily have exactly 1. The storage of boards is done in different ways, and lumber is not always required in such quantities. If a stack contains 0.8 cubic meters, then this is its volume.

Example. Buy a board 6 m, 25 mm, 20 cm wide, in the amount of one cube.
  • We convert the values ​​into meters: thickness – 0.025, width – 0.2.
  • We determine the cubic capacity of the board: 6 x 0.2 x 0.025 = 0.03 m³.
  • We calculate the number of samples - 1: 0.03 = 33, (3).

Calculator for calculating the quantity and volume of lumber

If the resulting value is a fraction, the result is always rounded to the nearest whole value. That is, only the numbers before the decimal point are taken into account. This is the generally accepted norm!

These tables will help you determine the approximate number of boards in a cube without resorting to calculations.


  • The calculation algorithm is the same for all lumber in this group, regardless of their characteristics - wood species, degree of drying.
  • The table values ​​are purely indicative, since they do not entirely correctly reflect the actual number of boards in a cube. Firstly, a lot depends on the stacking, that is, how tightly the boards fit. Secondly, nothing is said about the quality of processing of the workpieces (whether they are edged or not). Thirdly, it is not a fact that upon careful inspection a certain number of boards will not be rejected due to detected defects. Therefore, it is always necessary to slightly reduce the number obtained by calculation. If the board is edged - by about 10%, in the case of unedged - by 15 - 20%.
