Seite drucken1. Select a sample of wood that is approximately 12% moisture content, with all edges
being true. Carefully measure the dimensions of the sample using a caliper. You will
need the length, width, and thickness.
2. Convert these measurements to feet.
3. Carefully measure the weight of the sample.
4. Convert the weight to pounds.
5. Calculate specific gravity.
Example:
Length = 10 in.
Width = 7.5 in.
Thickness = 1.5 in.
Volume = L x W x T
Weight = 20 oz. 20 oz. / 16 oz. = 1.25 lb.
Specific Gravity:
(Weight / Volume) / Specific Gravity of water
(1.25 lb. / 0.065 cu. ft.) / 62.34 lb. / cu. ft. = 0.31
In order to ensure that the value obtained for the specific gravity is statistically
significant, a number of pieces must be measured and the average determined. Use
this value of specific gravity for the species adjustment in the meter.
METER CALIBRATION
The meter has been calibrated at the factory and should not require re-calibration. If
you need to have the calibration verified, please contact Accurate Technology to
purchase a calibration verification block. Should the meter need to have a calibration
adjustment, it will need to be returned to Accurate Technology. See WARRANTY for
return information.

10 in. / 12 in. = 0.833 ft.
7.5 in. / 12 in. = 0.625 ft.
1.5 in. / 12 in. = 0.125 ft.
0.833 x 0.625 x 0.125 = 0.065 cu. ft.
