CARPENTRY?
CARPENTRYIs the art of combining
pieces of lumber to support weight or to resist pressure.
LumberTimber sawed
into boards, planks, or other structural members of standard or specified length.
TimberThe wood of trees
cut and prepared for use as building material.
MEASURING WOODS:Board Foot means one square foot of wood
of one inch thick. The formula used to find board foot is:π©πΆπ¨πΉπ« ππΆπΆπ»= πππππππππ π πππ ππ π ππππππππ
Example: Compute the number of board feet for a piece of lumber measuring 2βx6βx12βSolution: board feet
Example: How many board feet are there in 30 pcs. Of lumber measuring 2βx8βx14βSolution: board feet
GUIDES ON MEASURING LUMBER
1.The thickness and width of lumber is in inches while the length is in feet of even length.
2.Lumber of nominal sizes from 2β x 2β and lower, are no longer computed in board foot, but in linear foot.
3.The price of lumber is variable depending upon:
a. Length. b. Width. c. Kind of lumber.
