Who they?!

 

I have noticed it has become trendy to call Hardwood "Cordwood" ! , 1 Cord of green beach is around 2200 kg or 3.62 M3 .

So a 3M green Beach log would be around 1.1 m dia in the center to give 90 cubic feet of wood in the round which is about a stacked Cord 128 cubic feet ,

cordwood (ˈkɔːdˌwʊd)

n

(Forestry) wood that has been cut into lengths of four feet so that it can be stacked in cords

 

From Collins English Dictionary – Complete and Unabridged, 12th Edition 2014

 

I was taught that a cord of wood is 128 cubic feet, arrived at by inserting four posts in the ground in a 4' square pattern, 4' high. Timber is cut to 8' long and stacked between the posts until level with the top of the posts, thus a nominal 'cord' of wood. A usual measurement for coppice wood.
