Volume

[Big Beech]

Seem to think I've asked this before, but cant recall and or find the post.

If you have 1 cubic meter raw of timber, what is the expected volume once processed in an ibc taking in to account randomised stacking.

 

Hope that makes sense!

Solid m3 = approx 2.5m3 split loose (range 2.2m3 - 2.6m3)

Solid m3 = split and stacked 0.67m3

1000 litre IBC crate = approx 1m3 level

Above based on 33 cm log length, if logs thick, uncut or gnarly more airspace and if shorter logs less airspace.

Thanksfor your reply, very helpful ?

From taking stacked creates of 25cm logs and converting them to loose filled 1m3 cages you get 1.4m3 loose from a stacked 1m3 of logs.
