This document is a lumber board foot calculator that allows the user to determine the board footage for lumber of varying lengths and widths. It displays the board footage in fractional increments for lengths between 1 and 18 feet and widths between 2 and 18 inches. To use it, the user finds the intersection of the length and width and the corresponding number is the board footage. For boards thicker than 1 inch, the user multiplies the board footage by the thickness in inches.

Calculator numbers above are shown as: whole Board Feet & 1/12ths Board Foot, i.e., 1-6 = 1 & 6/12ths Bd. Ft.
For boards over 1 inch thick, calculate the board foot from above, and multiply by the board thickness.
1 Board Foot = 4/4 (4 quarters) or 1 inch or Less thick, by 12 inches square; (or equivalent). Stock under 1 in. thick is tallied as being 1 in thick.
