Detailed explanation-1: -A standard, full cord of wood is a volume of 128 cubic feet, measured as a pile 8 feet long, 4 feet high and 4 feet wide. A full cord can weigh up to 5, 000 pounds.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are differences between the way many people measure firewood, but a true legal cord of wood is 128 cubic feet of stacked wood. To calculate a cord of wood simple multiply Width x Height x Length and divide that by 128. That will tell you how many cords you have.
Detailed explanation-3: -Like a face cord, a rick is a stack measuring four feet by eight feet. with a depth shorter than four feet. If the depth is 16 inches, the rick equals a face cord, but the lengths of logs in a rick often vary regionally and by seller. If the depth of the pile is two feet, the rick equals half a cord.
