Newton's Formula Calculator

Spike VM

Calculate the volume of a log using Newton's Formula.

One calculator for Imperial units and one for Metric units.

Newton's formula is the standard against which other cubic formula's are compared. The top, middle and base diameters are used with the log length for the determination of cubic volume.

For imperial units the volume is in cubic feet.
For metric units the volume is in cubic metres.

Newton's Formula
diameter small end + diameter large end / 2 = DIB mid section

Newton's Formula - Imperial

Diameter Measured Inside Bark = DIB
Length of Log in Feet ft
DIB Measured Small End inch
DIB Measured Mid Section inch
DIB Measured Large End inch

Results:

Log Volume in Cubic Feet ft³

Newton's Formula - Metric

Diameter Measured Inside Bark = DIB
Length of Log in Metres M
DIB Measured Small End cm
DIB Measured Mid Section cm
DIB Measured Large End cm

Results:

Log Volume in Cubic Metres
