Good day! We bring to your attention an article that should definitely help you in determining how many board cubes to build, for example, wooden bath, need to order. In the article we will give a difficult final result for boards of a certain size, but we will also tell you what the percentage of your overpayment is for one cube of such a board, and we will show an example of independently calculating the number of boards in a cube.
Let's start with the fact that boards are measured in cubic meters (abbr. cube). Cubic meter is the product of three quantities: the first of them is length, the second is width, and the third is height. In the case of a figure such as a “cube”, the value of the “volume” value will be equal to the length of the edge to the power of “3”. Another definition of cubic meter:
“Cubic meter (m³, cubic meter) is a unit of volume; equal to the volume of a cube with edges 1 meter long"
How to find the volume of a cube is shown in the video below (video in English):
Let's return to your future boards, namely their size. The size of the board is indicated as follows: 25x150x6000. The first number is the height (thickness), the second number is the width, and the third number is the length. The length of the board is usually either 4 meters or 6 meters.
Important! In fact, the length of the board will be greater than its nominal size. For example, a board 4 meters long actually has 4.1, or even 4.2 meters, and a board 6 meters long will have up to 6.25. As for the first two values, width and thickness (height), they must exactly correspond to the given parameter.
Let's consider the above board size 25x150x6000. The dimensions here are indicated in mm, but to determine cubic capacity, you need another unit of measurement - meter. Let's convert mm to meters and get a board 0.025x0.15x6.0. Let's apply the volume formula V= L* h* b, Where L- length, h- height, b- width. L=6.0; h=0.025; b=0.15. Thus, 6.0*0.025*0.15 = 0.0225 cubic meters. What does this mean? And this means one thing: if you know the price for 1 cubic meter of such a board, then freely determine the price of one board. Let’s say if the price of a cubic meter is 100 rubles, then for one board you will have to pay 100 * 0.0225 = 2.25 rubles.
Attention! Often, board sellers, one might say, “take advantage” of their clients by rounding up the volume of boards. For example, instead of 0.025 cubic meters, the size is indicated as 0.023. Of course, this is an insignificant deviation if you purchase less than 1 cubic meter of boards costing 100 rubles, but when a cubic meter costs, for example, 300 rubles, and you need 10 cubic meters, the overpayment will be significant.
That is why you should learn to independently determine the cubic capacity of the board. So, we were able to determine the volume of one board. But how to determine how many unedged boards are included in 1 cubic meter with dimensions of 25x150x6000. And it’s even easier to do this by using the formula:
1 cubic meter / (L*h*b) = N pieces.
We substitute the available data and get the number of boards 25x150x6000 in 1 cubic meter:
1 / (6.0*0.025*0.15) = 1 / 0.0225 = 44.4 pcs.
Important! When ordering one cubic meter 25x150x6000, you actually take 44 boards, and simply overpay for 0.4. Thus, 1% of the cost of a cubic meter is your overpayment.
Below, together with you, we will determine the volume of one board and the number of boards for different sizes.

We calculate the volume of one board using the formula: 6 * 0.025 * 0.1 = 0.015 cubic meters. meters.
If you were careful, then a board measuring 25x150x4000 has exactly the same volume, and based on this we can immediately calculate the number of boards in 1 cubic meter: 66 pieces.
40x100x6000 (length - 6000, height - 40, width - 100)

Number of boards in 1 cubic meter: 1 / 0.027 = 37.04 pieces. We get 37 boards. Perhaps, it is for a cubic meter of such a board that you will have to overpay the smallest percentage.
40x150x6000 (length - 6000, height - 40, width - 150)
We calculate the volume of one board using the formula: 6*0.04*0.15=0.036 cubic meters. meters.
So what is the number of boards 40x150x6000 in 1 cubic meter? It is equal to 1 / 0.036 = 27.8 cubic meters. meters. Attention! As you can see, if you round the number of such boards down, you will overpay a decent amount of money, almost 3%!
50x150x6000 (length - 6000, height - 50, width - 150)
We calculate the volume of one board 50x150x6000. We substitute the parameters into the formula and we have: 6 * 0.05 * 0.15 = 0.045 cubic meters. meters.

The volume of such a board is 6 * 0.04 * 0.2 = 0.048 cubic meters. meters. And the number of boards 40x200x6000 in one cube is 20.8 pieces.
IMPORTANT: when rounding down, the overpayment will be significant!
50x200x6000 (length - 6000, height - 50, width - 200)
The last size we will consider in this article. We calculate the volume of one such board: 6 * 0.05 * 0.2 = 0.06 cubic meters. meters. The number of such boards in 1 cubic meter will be equal to 1 / 0.06 = 16.7, which means a large overpayment when rounded towards 16 pieces!
To help you avoid confusion, below is a table with the results obtained:
Board size, mm | Volume 1 board, cube meters | Number of boards in 1 cubic meter, PC | Volume of overpayment when rounded down, % with rounding |
|---|---|---|---|
When implementing construction work for the construction of a residential building, a specialist must perform a large number of different tasks, one of which is: drawing up and calculating the estimated cost before the final finishing of the premises of a residential building. It is mandatory to calculate the required amount of various building materials, which is quite difficult to do. Therefore, such knowledge - how many boards are in a cube - is very important for a specialist who is engaged in the construction of a residential building and wants to complete the work as efficiently and quickly as possible.
To calculate exactly how many board pieces are in a cube, you will need to know not only what exactly a board cube means, but it is worth understanding important point that exist different kinds boards and what is possible to purchase on modern market for performing various construction works. It should be noted that the cube of almost all materials, regardless of the type of material, is calculated in the same way, that is, according to one specific method. The types of boards have no influence on the calculation of the cubic capacity of this building material.
Non-grooved types of lumber are: timber, various edged boards, as well as unedged boards (they are an exception when calculating cubic capacity, because this process occurs a little differently). Tongue-and-groove types (which have special grooves for making joints) include: modern lining, blockhouse, flooring material, as well as imitation of natural timber. When you choose a tongue-and-groove type of building material for purchase, then you will need to pay attention to the fact that when making calculations, only the working width of the board without a tenon is used. If we talk about a blockhouse (imitation log), then when calculating the cubic capacity, only the thickness at its highest point is taken.
Any person, even from his school days, understands how cubic capacity is calculated. For this procedure, it is necessary to calculate quantities such as: length, width and height. A similar principle is used to calculate the cubic capacity of 1 board. When performing such calculations, it is recommended to convert all available values into meters. The cubic capacity of 1 board, which has a cross-section of 150x20 mm. and a length of 6 m, is calculated as follows: 0.15 multiplied by 0.02 and 6, so that the cubic capacity of this board will be 0.018 cubic meters.
Let's apply the volume formula V= L*h*b (where L is length, h is height, b is width).
L= 6.0; h= 0.02; b= 0.15.
Thus, V= 6.0*0.02*0.15 = 0.018 m3.
To determine how many boards are in one cube: divide 1 m3 by cubic capacity (the volume of one board).
1 m 3 / V = N pcs.
1 m 3 / 0.018 m 3 = 55.55 pcs.
Thus, the number of boards in one cube is 55.5 pieces.
Finding out the cost of a certain type of board when the values of its volume is known is quite easy: 0.018 multiplied by the price of 1 cubic meter. When 1 cube of a certain type of board costs, for example, 5,500 rubles, then the cost will be 99 rubles. At this point in the calculation, there is some trick of sellers and managers in construction stores, because the cubic capacity of the material is rounded to some integer values.
Such rounding can lead to such a moment that the price of 1 board (when 1 cube costs 5500) will be completely different values. In addition to all this, it should be noted that various boards for construction, which have a nominal length of 6 meters, actually have a length of 6.1 - 6.2 m, which is not taken into account when selling this building material. This also applies to the purchase of a significant number of boards. This can be seen quite clearly if we use a 150x20 mm board as an example. The number of boards in a cube is a value of 55.5 pcs. But, in a cube they count 55 pieces, which when performing the calculation will have a value of 0.99 cubic meters. In fact, it follows from this that the overpayment for 1 cubic meter of this popular building material can amount to 1% of the real price. For example, 5500 instead of 4995 rubles.
To calculate the cubic capacity for a continuous type of board, slightly different methods are used. When the conversation is about buying 1 board, then measure its thickness, as well as total length are carried out in the same way as when choosing edged building material. In this case, the average width is taken for calculations - between great value and small.
For example, when the width of the board at one end is 25 cm, and at the other 20, then the average value will be approximately 22 centimeters. When it is necessary to calculate the volume of a significant number of similar boards for construction, then you will need to lay them out so that the wide one does not differ from the narrow one, more than 10 cm. The main length of this material in the laid out stack should be approximately the same. After this, using a regular tape measure, an accurate measurement is made of the height of the entire existing stack of boards, and the width is measured (approximately in the very middle). The result obtained will then need to be multiplied by a special coefficient, amounting to a value from 0.07 to 0.09, directly dependent on the existing air gap.
To calculate the exact number of boards of a certain width and length in 1 cubic meter, various tables are used. Below are several such specialized tables, which indicate the cubic capacity of the common and in demand types of this material today. It is possible to calculate the volume of various boards of different sizes, for example, material for erecting a fence on your site, using the existing formula presented above.

Construction of a private house, cottage or any other building requires drawing up an estimate. It indicates the quantity of building materials and their cost. There are several methods that allow you to carry out the corresponding calculations. The board is a common material that is used everywhere. In order to determine how many boards are in a cube, you need to familiarize yourself with the calculation options and the nuances of this process.
The boards used in the construction of houses and other structures differ according to several criteria. First of all, the material from which they are made is taken into account. The technical characteristics of the product depend on the type of wood. Depending on the production method, these building elements are divided into types:
The first of these relate to top quality and have correct form, since all their faces can be processed. In turn, unedged products are most often used to organize rough flooring, etc. The peculiarity of this material is that its side edges are not processed, they contain bark and have natural shape. This simplifies production unedged boards and affects its cost.
In order to answer the question of how to calculate the cube of a board, you must first decide which material will be used in the construction process. For example, it is easier to calculate the cubic capacity and cost of a trimmed part, since it has a geometrically correct shape.
For unedged products there are constant values, which are arithmetic averages. The table of boards in a cube is not always suitable in this case, since it takes into account the rounding of even edged lumber.
It is worth mentioning separately building materials for finishing. This group includes lining, block house and products that imitate timber. The design of these finishing parts includes special ribs and grooves necessary for a tight connection individual elements between themselves.
Helpful information! When calculating finished lumber, you need to focus only on the dimensions of the main part of the board. So the size lock connections is not taken into account; only the numerical values of the product body are taken for calculation.
Regardless of what type of material is used, a single formula is used to calculate the number of boards in a cube. The exception in this case is unedged products. Their calculation has its own characteristics, because such parts do not have all the faces necessary for calculation.
Cube is geometric figure, which consists of 6 equal faces. Each of them is a square. To determine the volume of a given figure, you need to multiply 3 indicators together:
In order to find out how many boards are in 1 cube, you need to multiply several values. The result is a mathematical expression that looks like this:
V = h x b x L, where:
h – height of the edged product (m);
b – element width (m);
L – length of one part (m).
Using this formula, you can determine the volume of 1 element. It is important to remember that when making calculations, it is necessary to convert the millimeter values of the product into meters. For example, in order to determine how many 25x150x6000 boards are in a cube, you will need to convert the numbers by multiplying them by 0.001. The finished mathematical expression after this transformation will look like this:
V = 0.025 x 0.15 x 6
As a result, it turns out that the volume of one wooden part equal to 0.0225 cubic meters (m³). Next, it remains to calculate how many pieces of edged boards are contained in 1 cubic meter. For this there is simple formula. It involves dividing 1 cubic meter by the volume of 1 board, which was obtained using the previous mathematical expression. Let's look at the calculation using an example:
1 m³ / 0.0225 m³ = 44.4
Thus, 1 cubic meter contains approximately (if rounded) 44 boards. After this, you can independently determine the amount of material required for the construction of a specific structure. And also at this stage you can draw up a general estimate indicating the price of edged boards per cubic meter.
To calculate the cost of 1 edged board, a mathematical expression is used, which implies multiplying the volume of 1 part by the price per cubic meter. Let's look at an example:
0.0225 x 8200 rub. = 184.5 rub.
The calculation showed that the cost of 1 product of the edged variety will be approximately 184 rubles. If the cost of 1 part is known, but you need to calculate the price of a cube of a board, you need to do the opposite manipulation. In this situation, you will need to divide the price for 1 product (184.5) by its volume (0.0225).
Note! Sometimes, especially when purchasing a small batch of boards, confusion occurs with decimal places. In some cases, lumber sellers specifically post prices calculated by rounding to the 3rd number. However, according to the law, this value is only suitable for large quantities of boards. When purchasing several products, it is recommended to round according to GOST, namely to 0.000001 m³.
When calculating the amount of boards and the cost of lumber per cubic meter, it is advisable to take into account unplanned losses, which very often occur during construction. Therefore, it is recommended to buy edged products with a small supply (several pieces).
Calculating the cubic capacity of an unedged board has some nuances, since its shape is not correct. There is no such material rectangular section along its entire length, so it is used to organize temporary structures. The lower and upper surfaces of an unedged board must be processed along its entire length. Otherwise, this product is a side part of a log (slab).
There are several methods for finding the volume of unedged lumber in 1 cubic meter, as well as its quantity. It’s worth noting right away that determining how many boards are in one cube is quite difficult if we're talking about about wrong geometric shapes. Therefore, the initial numbers obtained when calculating unedged parts will represent an approximate indicator.
Let's consider what methods are used to calculate the cubic capacity and quantity of unedged lumber:
In the first case, you will need to load the lumber into a bag, which must have the correct shape. After laying it is necessary to measure the necessary indicators. Next, the standard procedure for determining the volume is carried out using the values obtained from taking measurements. This method is most common for products that do not have clear edges. For example, you can use it to calculate the cubes of a 25x150x6000 board in a cube (unedged).
It is worth noting that in a mathematical expression of this type, a special coefficient is used (for width), which represents the arithmetic average. Although this option is not fast, it allows you to answer the question of how to calculate the cube of the board.
The piece method involves the use of numbers corresponding to the arithmetic average values of the height and width of the edged product. These values are calculated in meters.
In order to find the arithmetic average, it is necessary to measure the board. Measured minimum width(at the narrowest point) and maximum. Next, both indicators are added and divided in half. After this, the same height manipulation is performed. The numbers obtained during the calculation must be multiplied by each other and by the length of the product.
Let's look at what this looks like as a mathematical expression:
(b max + b min) / 2 x (h max + h min) / 2 x L = V
Using this formula, it will not be difficult to determine the volume of 1 unedged element and answer the question of how to calculate the cubic capacity of the part. After obtaining this value, you can calculate the total number of boards per cubic meter. For such a calculation, you will need to use a formula similar to that for a trimmed part (the cubic meter is divided by the volume of the product).
Helpful information ! When purchasing raw boards, you need to be careful. Sellers should use a factor that reduces the total volume to account for future shrinkage. To calculate wet coniferous products, 1 cubic meter must be multiplied by the number 0.96. In turn, the coefficient for hardwood is 0.95.
The last method that allows you to determine the volume of lumber and its quantity in 1 cubic meter is the sampling method. It is used when calculating large quantities of wooden building materials. The essence of this method is that several boards are selected from the total mass. Then the parts are measured and calculated according to the piecemeal method. The resulting numbers are multiplied by the total number of parts in the batch.
As an example, you can take an unedged product with dimensions of 50 by 150 by 6000 mm. First, convert millimeters to meters. Some people don't know how many millimeters are in 1 meter. To convert, you will need to multiply the required number in mm by a factor of 0.001. In its finished form (with substituted values), the formula will look like this:
(0.155 + 0.145) / 2 x (0.055 + 0.045) / 2 x 6 = V

After addition and division by 2, we obtain the arithmetic average of the width and height of the unedged part. Thus, the formula takes on a more understandable, standard form:
0.15 x 0.05 x 6 = 0.045
This is how a calculation is made, the result of which is to find the volume of 1 board. To determine the number of products in 1 cubic meter, the same formula is used as in the case of a trimmed analogue.
If necessary, you can calculate the area of one board. Most often this is required when the manufacturer indicates the price per square meter, and not per cubic meter. The area formula involves multiplying the width of a part by its length. In this case, it is important not to make a mistake and remember to convert millimeters to meters.
In order to determine the cost, the same formula is used as in the case of edged lumber. You just need to multiply the volume of 1 part by the value that corresponds to the total price of the cube. This is how the calculation of cubes in a cube of a 50x150x6000 board is performed.
Perhaps the simplest method (along with the lumber cubature table) by definition exact value volume and quantity wooden planks– online calculator. It is a program with specified algorithms that allow you to calculate all the necessary values of lumber. This method makes it possible to calculate not only edged boards, but also other types of these products.
Note! In order to avoid the possibility of errors when calculating material using an online calculator, you should immediately indicate for which board the measurement is being used.
The process itself is quite simple. First, you need to find a calculator on one of the specialized sites using the search bar of your browser. Next, you will need to enter the necessary indicators in the appropriate cells. The cube board calculator will do the calculations on its own.
This method is popular and allows you to quickly and accurately determine all the necessary values of lumber. When using the calculator, it is recommended to check the accuracy of the filling several times. In case of an error, the calculation will be performed incorrectly, which can lead to serious discrepancies in the final figures.
The last method to determine the quantity and cubic capacity of wooden products is to use a special table. This method is very convenient as it does not require lengthy calculations. All that is needed is simply to find the desired value in the table using the original data (width, height and length).
In order to quickly find the correct answer to the question of how many boards are in one cube, the table is best suited. However, experts point out one drawback of this method: numbers corresponding to cubic capacity or quantity are often rounded. Therefore, if you need to perform the most accurate calculation, it is recommended to carry out all the calculations yourself.
Volume of edged board in cube:
|
Board dimensions, mm |
Length, m | Volume 1 piece, m³ |
| 50 to 200 | 6 | 0,06 |
| 30 to 100 | 0,018 | |
| 20 to 150 | 0,018 | |
| 30 to 150 | 0,027 | |
| 20 to 200 | 0,024 | |
| 30 to 200 | 0,036 | |
| 25 to 100 | 0,015 | |
| 40 to 100 | 0,024 | |
| 25 to 150 | 0,0225 | |
| 40 to 150 | 0,036 | |
| 25 to 200 | 0,03 | |
| 50 to 100 | 0,03 | |
| 40 to 200 | 0,048 | |
| 50 to 150 | 0,045 | |
| 20 to 100 | 0,012 |
In addition, before starting to search for the desired value, it is advisable to make sure that the length of the lumber matches. Tables can be different, containing information about the cubic capacity of boards with a length of 3, 4 or 6 m. Today the most common are wooden crafts, the length of which is 6 meters. How many boards are in one cube? The table that allows you to determine the quantity of lumber also uses rounded values.
Do not forget that the board can be made from different types of wood. Therefore, before you start using the table, it is recommended to make sure that you have selected the required type of lumber.

The good thing about the tabular method is that it does not require calculations or self-filling of dimensional and other values of lumber to obtain an answer. It is suitable for determining cubic capacity, and also allows you to answer the question of how many boards are in a cube. The table is ideal for calculating large batches of products.
Today on construction market You can find many varieties of lumber. All of them are differentiated not only by size, but also by the type of wood from which they were made. The cost of these products is also influenced by production technology and their purpose. In order to find out how much a board cube costs, you need to familiarize yourself with all the varieties of these parts.
The most popular in the construction of private houses, cottages, and other structures is the classic edged board. It can be 1st or 2nd grade. The first option is more expensive because it has higher technical characteristics and durability.
Helpful information! The price for a 1st grade edged board is approximately 7,500 rubles. for 1 cubic Products that belong to a lower quality group cost about 4-6 thousand rubles. for 1 m³.
The width and height of the boards, as a rule, does not affect their cost. This is due to the fact that in a cubic meter, regardless of dimensions wooden lumber, there will be the same number of parts. In the sense that for the same price you will get 44 edged boards 25x1500x6000 (price per cube: 7500 rubles) or 22 parts 50x150 having the same length.
Separately, it is worth mentioning the edged boards made in accordance with technical specifications(THAT). Lumber of this type costs on average about 7,000 rubles. per cubic meter Such boards are distinguished by good quality characteristics and can be used in the construction of various structures.
Unedged products are cheaper because they are of lower quality. Their cost is calculated using average values. The price of unedged lumber ranges from 4 to 5 thousand rubles. However, they are not recommended for construction. It is better to use higher quality lumber, for example, edged boards 40x150x6000 (price per cube: 7500) or similar products with other dimensions.
When purchasing wooden lumber, you need to pay attention to some points. For example, the board must be level. The curvature of a product most often indicates that the technology was violated during its production. Such parts are not used in construction because they do not have the required quality.
How much does a cube of board weigh? When purchasing this building material, you should consider its weight. For example, an edged board made from dry spruce weighs 450 kg (1 cubic meter). 1 m³ of raw product has a mass of 790 kg. Dry pine weighs 470, and wet - 890 kg. This knowledge will be needed when transporting products.
When choosing lumber and calculating it, you must be careful. The board should not have cracks, chips or other defects. Allowed small cracks, however, it is recommended to buy a whole, high-quality product that complies with GOST. You should also pay attention to the presence of knots. This is due to the fact that they negatively affect the strength of the wooden part. The choice of calculation method depends on the specific case. If necessary, you can always use the services of specialists who will help you complete correct calculation and make an estimate.
In the process of private construction, for example a house, garage or cottage, probably not a single builder can do without lumber. Even if the house is being built from the most fashionable and modern materials, replace part wooden structures, for example, rafters, logs, lathing, for example, on plastic or metal is impossible or economically unprofitable.
To build a small house or bathhouse, you will probably need at least several cubic meters of lumber various sizes and sections, starting from boards and ending with beams and slats. If the construction is large enough, then the timber count already amounts to tens of cubic meters.
At a large-scale construction site, usually the number of certain types of boards or timber is already included in the estimate and the builders do not need to calculate whether they will be enough or not for the construction, but what should those who build small house on a limited budget?
If he buys more lumber than he needs, what will he do with the rest? In order to help these people in calculating lumber and their quantity, we decided to write this article. We proceeded from the fact that for small construction projects the counting of lumber is carried out either piece by piece or by footage, therefore the cross-section of boards and beams, as well as their length, are required in the tables. The volume of specific lumber is also indicated in cubic meters.
This is done so that a person can calculate the required number of boards or bars in cubic meters, since most companies that sell lumber sell them in cubic meters. If you buy, for example, boards individually in hardware store- there the final price will be 1.5 - 2 times higher, which is absolutely unprofitable for the buyer.
Additionally, we provided data for so-called non-standard lumber, because many companies cut timber according to customer sizes and these sizes may differ from standard ones (usually this is dictated by issues of economy or design features of the structure being constructed).
When indicating the amount of lumber in one cube, we gave the figure for solid boards or bars, so for the calculation it is more accurate to use the volume data specific type lumber, multiplying them by the quantity.
For private construction, information about the number of boards or bars in one cube is very useful. By purchasing several cubes of boards, you will know exactly how many boards are in a given volume, which will also help you count them upon receipt, that is, you will not be deceived with the quantity.

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 natural origin and environmental cleanliness.
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:
In addition, pine board has antiseptic qualities, which makes it 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.
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 cut, which uses a resin-impregnated, durable core of log. 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. Lowest quality and cheap board turns out when tangential cutting. Such material is subject to swelling and shrinkage, but this method cutting 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 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.
