1 foot size is 12 inches
because 1 foot is the size of a ruler and there are 12 inches in 1 ruler
Though "board foot" sounds a measurement of area it is actually a measurement of volume. 1 board foot equals 144 cubic inches of wood. Length x Width x Thickness = Board Feet Therefore a board that is 12 inches x 12 inches x 1 inch is 1 board foot. But so is a board that is 12 x 6 x 2 However, you must take into account the fact that all lumber is actually a different size than it says it is. A 2 x 12 is actually 1-1/2 by 11-1/2. So instead of a board foot of 1 x 12 being 12 inches long, it would be: 144 / (3/4 x 11-1/2) or 13.22 inches long.
