A 2X6 is 5 1/2 inches wide. Incidentally it's 1 1/2 inches thick. Pre-WWII lumber was cut at stated dimensions, a 2x4 was actually 2 inches by 4 inches.
It is equal to to 72 because 2x6=12 and 3x2=6 and 12x6=72 or if you think this is to complicated, you can do 2x6=12, 12x3=36, and then 36x2, which then also gives you 72
It can be a bit of wood with the dimension 2x6 inches or centimetres or even millimetres. It can be a toilet or bathroom 12 Sqm. Normally you would use a tape measure in order to measure dimensions. Regards.
The word "lumber" is a verb and a noun."He is going to lumber the trees in the back garden".
If I do your homework for you, you will fail your test.
A 2X6 (dry Douglas fir) weighs 2lbs per foot. Thus a 20ft 2X6 would weigh 40 lbs. Other types of lumber such as pine weighs more and all lumber is heaver when wet or if it has been treated.
Using 2x6 pressure treated lumber for outdoor projects provides benefits such as increased durability, resistance to rot and decay, protection against insects, and longevity in outdoor environments.
2x4, 2x6 and 2x10
Lumber yards and home improvement stores in the U.S. generally stock stud length 2x6's (92-5/8").
Standard lumber measurements used in construction projects include 2x4, 2x6, 2x8, 2x10, and 2x12, which refer to the dimensions of the lumber in inches. These measurements are commonly used for framing and structural components in buildings.

Yes, 2x6 lumber can be used for deck joists, but it may not be as strong or durable as larger dimensions like 2x8 or 2x10. It is important to consider the span and load requirements of your deck when choosing the appropriate size for joists.
Common treated lumber sizes available for purchase include 2x4, 2x6, 4x4, and 6x6. These sizes are commonly used for various construction projects and can be found at most hardware stores.
A saw mill rough cuts a log into standard sizes of lumber such as 2x4, 2x6, 2x8,etc. The rough cut lumber is cut to the actual measurements of 2" x 4", 2" x 6", 2" x 8", etc. The lumber at this point is very rough so it is run through a planner that smoothes the lumber by removing a small amount of wood on each of its four sides. The actual dimensions of the lumber after being smoothed is 1/2" smaller in both width and thickness so a 2x4 will actually measure 1 1/2" x 3 1/2", a 2x6 is 1 1/2" x 5 1/2", a 2x8 is 1 1/2" x 7 1/2", etc. A 2x6 bought by a consumer at a lumber yard is actually only 1 1/2" or 1.5" thick and 5 1/2" or 5.5" wide. A 1 foot (12") length of 2x6 is (5.5" x 12") 66 square inches. 64 square feet is equivalent to (64 x 12" x 12") 9,216 square inches. So it takes (9,216/66) 139.64 feet of 2 x 6 to cover 64 square feet. Ten 2x6's 14 feet long will cover almost exactly 64 square feet.
Ah, bundles of lumber are like little treasures waiting to be discovered! Typically, a bundle of lumber contains around 100 2x6 boards, but it can vary depending on the supplier and the specific order. Just imagine all the beautiful creations you can bring to life with those boards!

It depends on where you live. If you are in a colder climate the up front cost of the 2x6 lumber will pay off over time. The extra insulation will be worth it.
