The cubic meter of a spruce is easy to determine even for inexperienced people. In this guide you will find out how many cubic meters an average spruce trunk has and how you can calculate the value yourself and convert it into cubic meters.
How many cubic meters does a spruce have?
The cubic meter of a spruce is usually between 0.628 and 11.781 cubic meters, depending on the trunk length and the center diameter. To calculate the solid meter, use Huber's formula: Vfm=Pi / 4 × d² × L.
How many cubic meters does a spruce have?
The trunk length of a spruce is usually around 20 to 60 meters, and the center diameter is usually around 20 to 50 centimeters. Accordingly, depending on the specific tree, the solid meter size of a spruce trunk is usually approximately0.628 to 11.781 cubic meters.
What is a cubic meter of spruce wood?
One cubic meter of spruce wood corresponds toone cubic meter of solid wood mass of a spruce tree trunk without the air-filled spaces. The measurement is abbreviated “fm” or sometimes just “F”. In general, the cubic meter is primarily used to mark trunk pieces of felled trees that have not yet been further processed.
How do I determine the cubic meter of a spruce?
Calculate the cubic meter of a spruce using Huber's formula:Vfm=Pi / 4 × d to the power of 2 × L
- Vfm=volume in cubic meters
- Pi=circle number 3, 1416
- d=center diameter
- L=trunk length
Important: If you want to calculate the cubic meter without bark, you have to subtract one to three centimeters depending on the center diameter.
Tip
Convert solid meters to cubic meters
The cubic meter (rm or R for short) or stere is the measure of stacked wood including its gaps. It is therefore always larger than the solid meter. Rule of thumb: 1 sc=1, 4 rm.
