  CBM Formula
  calculate cubic meter

Suppose you want to ship 50 cartons each carton size is Cubic Meter | CBM Formula

Height 20cm

Width 30cm

Length 40cm


 

1st STEP:
Must know the formula to calculate CBM is as under


CBM = W x H x L
 

W = WIDTH OF CARTON


H = HIGHT OF CARTON


L = LENGTH OF CARTON

2Nd Step:

Please be remember the W, H, L, must be in Meter. If it’s not in meter need convert in the meter. In our example the W, H, L is in cm so according to international standard 1 Meter is equal to 100cm. so we need to divide by 100 to get result in Meter.


Height 20 cm = 20/100 = 0.20 M


Width 30 cm = 30/100 = 0.30 M


Length 40 cm = 40/100 = 0.40 M
 

TIP: If you have measurement in CM and need to convert it to Meter the easiest way to move 2 decimal places. 20 CM after moving 2 decimal it will become 0.20 M.


 

3rd Step:
Now put values in the formula:
 

CBM = W x H x L


CBM = 0.20 X 0.30 X 0.40 = 0.024 CBM
 

So now your 1 Carton is equal to 0.024 CBM. It also means that your 1 carton will occupy 0.024 CBM space.



4th and Final Step:
If 1 carton will occupy 0.024 CBM the 50 cartons will occupy:
 

0.024 x 50 = 1.2CBM
 

That it, now you know that your total volume of shipment in Cubic Meter is 1.2 CBM.
 

Hope it will be helpful for you.
