About these units
Cubic Foot (ft³)
A cubic foot equals 28.31684659 liters, representing the volume of a cube one foot on each side. It is widely used in construction, real estate, natural gas metering, and HVAC systems. Room ventilation rates, airflow in ducts, and gas consumption often use cubic feet or cubic feet per minute (CFM). Storage capacity for freezers, shipping containers, and building materials also frequently uses this unit. The cubic foot's relationship to the foot makes it practical in industries where imperial length units still dominate.
Quart (UK) (qt (UK))
A UK quart equals 1/4 of a UK gallon, approximately 1.13652 liters, making it significantly larger than the US quart. Historically used for beer, milk, and household liquids, the UK quart was a staple of British commerce for centuries. In many traditional recipes and food instructions, quarts remain in archival use. The quart illustrates the divergence between US and UK systems following the 18th-century measurement reforms, reflecting how cultural and regulatory environments shape unit evolution.
