Wood Density Calculation

Density: -- kg/m³

Formula: Density = Mass / Volume

Where:
- Mass is the mass of the wood sample in kilograms
- Volume is the volume of the wood sample in cubic meters

Wood Density Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Wood Density Calculator and understand wood density measurements

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the mass of your wood sample in kilograms (kg).
  2. Measure the length, width, and height of your wood sample in centimeters (cm).
  3. Click the "Calculate" button to compute the wood density.
  4. The result will be displayed in kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³).

Understanding Wood Density

Wood density is an important property that affects many of its uses. It is defined as the mass of wood per unit volume. The density of wood varies depending on:

  • Species of wood
  • Moisture content
  • Age of the tree
  • Geographical location

Typical Wood Density Values

Wood densities typically range from:

  • 300 kg/m³ to 800 kg/m³ for softwoods
  • 400 kg/m³ to 1000 kg/m³ for hardwoods

Note: This calculator provides a basic density calculation. For more precise measurements, consider factors like moisture content and wood direction (grain orientation).
