Cardboard Box Weight Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Cardboard Box Weight Calculator and its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the length, width, and height of the cardboard box in centimeters.
  2. Enter the weight of the contents inside the box in kilograms.
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the total weight of the box and its contents.
  4. The results will display the estimated weight of the box itself and the total weight.

Working Principle

The calculator estimates the weight of the cardboard box based on its volume. The formula used is:

Box Weight (kg) = (Volume (cm³) / 1000) * 0.1

Where the volume is calculated as Volume (cm³) = Length (cm) * Width (cm) * Height (cm). The factor 0.1 kg per 1000 cubic cm is an approximation for the weight of a typical cardboard box.

The total weight is then the sum of the content weight and the estimated box weight.
