| Convert from cord foot [timber] to pipe [UK] |
Unit Definition (cord foot [timber]) The cord foot [timber] is a traditional unit of volume used to measure stacked firewood. A cord foot is the volume of a stack of firewood 4 feet wide, 1 foot long, and 4 feet high. Thus the cord foot is 1/8 cord, or 16 cubic feet, or about 0.4531 cubic meter. Unit Definition (pipe [UK]) The pipe [UK] like the butt, the pipe is a traditional unit of liquid volume generally equal to 2 hogsheads. In Britain it's more complicated, because traditional British hogsheads were of different sizes depending on what they contained. The British pipe was usually used as a wine measure, but even different types of wine had different size pipes.
