Cubic Feet to Pounds Calculator

Input any two values among Cubic Feet, Density, and Pounds, and the calculator will compute the missing value based on the formula.

The Cubic Feet to Pounds Calculator is a helpful tool to determine the relationship between volume, density, and weight. This calculator is ideal for applications like shipping, construction, and materials handling where weight-to-volume conversions are essential. Simply input the known values to find the missing parameter accurately and quickly.

Formula

\text{Pounds (lbs)} = \text{Cubic Feet (ft³)} \times \text{Density (lbs/ft³)}

Variable	Description	Units
Cubic Feet	Volume of the object	ft³
Density	Material density	lbs/ft³
Pounds	Weight of the object	lbs

Solved Calculations

Example 1: Calculate Pounds
A material has a volume of 5 ft³ and a density of 12 lbs/ft³. Calculate the weight in pounds.

Step	Value	Explanation
Step 1: Input	Volume: 5 ft³, Density: 12 lbs/ft³	Enter known values.
Step 2: Formula	Pounds = Volume × Density	Apply the formula.
Step 3: Apply	Pounds = $5 \times 12 = 60$ lbs	Perform the calculation.
Step 4: Result	$60$ lbs	The object weighs 60 lbs.

Example 2: Calculate Cubic Feet
An object weighs 120 lbs and has a density of 15 lbs/ft³. Find its volume in cubic feet.

Step	Value	Explanation
Step 1: Input	Weight: 120 lbs, Density: 15 lbs/ft³	Enter known values.
Step 2: Formula	Volume = Pounds / Density	Apply the formula.
Step 3: Apply	Volume = $120 / 15 = 8$ ft³	Perform the calculation.
Step 4: Result	ft³	The object occupies 8 ft³ of volume.
