1 inch = 25.4 mm
1 sq ft = 0.0929 m2
1 m2 = 10.76 sq ft
1 cu ft = 12 bd ft
1 m3 = 35.315 cu ft
1 ton = 1.416 m3
1 ton = 50 cu ft
1,000 b ft = 2.36 m3
1,000 b ft = 83.333 cu ft
1 lineal metre = 3.28 lineal feet
1 hectare = 2.47 acres
Lengths in Imperial and Metric: Moulding calculations: To get lineal metres from cubic metres use the following calculations (metric): M3 amount (divide by) thickness (divide by) width (multiply by) 1,000,000 For example: 20m3 of 20mm x 190mm window boards = 20m3 /20mm/190mm x 1,000,000 = 5,263 lineal metres.
Calculating Cu Ft from an imperial Specification Thickness (inches) x width (inches) x length (feet) x number of pieces divided by 144 = cu ft (to get to m3 divide this by 35.315)
