About this calculator
Quick total cost from a per-LF price quote. Most dimensional construction lumber (2×4, 2×6, etc.) is priced per linear foot or per stick. Hardwoods more often per board-foot. Always confirm pricing unit on the receipt.
Frequently asked
For dimensional lumber (fixed cross-section), LF is a simpler quote. For mixed-size hardwoods, BF normalizes for volume.
