CBM Calculation

CBM Calculation

To calculate CBM we first need to know the length, width and height of the carton in cm. If carton measurement is in inch, we have to convert measurement in inch. Simply multiply length, width and height to find cubic centimeter and divide by 1000000 to find cubic meter (CBM). Please find formula as follows:

If carton measurement in inches

Length	Width	Height	Formula (Length X Width X Height in CM/1000000)	CBM/per Ctn	Ctn Qty	Total CBM
20.5”	13”	4.5”
52.07 cm (Converted into cm. We know 1 inch=2.54 cm)	33.02 cm (Converted into cm. We know 1 inch=2.54 cm)	11.43 cm (Converted into cm. We know 1 inch=2.54 cm)	0.019652187	0.01965	3000	58.96

If carton measurement in cm

Length	Width	Height	Formula (Length X Width X Height In cm/1000000)	CBM/per Ctn	Ctn Qty	Total CBM
52.07 cm	33.02 cm	11.43 cm	0.019652187	0.01965	3000	58.96

Note:

**Why 1000000?

Ans: Length x Width x Height (in cm)= CUBIC CM. We have to convert it into CUBIC METER. We know 1 meter=100cm. So, 100 x 100 x 100=1000000. That is, 1000000 CUBIC CM=1 CUBIC METER.
