About these units

Liter (L, l)

The liter is one of the most widely used units of volume worldwide, defined as the volume of a cube measuring 10 centimeters on each side, making 1 L = 1,000 cubic centimeters = 1 cubic decimeter. Despite not being an SI base unit, it is fully accepted for use with the SI system due to its universal practicality. The liter occupies a sweet spot: large enough to measure beverages, fuel, and household liquids, yet small enough for precise laboratory use. Its intuitive scale simplifies everyday tasks—recipes, medical dosages, aquarium capacities, and fuel economy are all naturally expressed in liters. In science, the liter's alignment with the metric system makes it indispensable for expressing fluid volumes, solution concentrations (L in mol/L), and gas quantities under standard conditions. Industrial systems use liters for chemical processing, water treatment, and food production, making it a cornerstone of modern volume measurement.

Board Foot (board foot)

A board foot is a unit of volume used in lumber, defined as a board measuring 1 foot long × 1 foot wide × 1 inch thick, equal to 144 cubic inches, or about 2.36 liters. The unit reflects a material-centric approach to volume: rather than measuring empty space, the board foot measures solid wood content, crucial for pricing logs, boards, and woodworking materials. Forestry operations, sawmills, and lumber yards rely heavily on board-feet calculations to estimate yields from logs, determine pricing, and evaluate timber resources. The unit persists due to deep integration with North American construction and carpentry practices.
