How much wood is in a Cord of Wood? Or, what is the proper measurement of firewood?
• A Full Cord of stacked wood measures 4 feet high by 4 feet wide by 8 feet long (4′ x 4′ x 8′) and has a volume of 128 cubic feet. • A Half Cord of stacked wood measures 4 feet high by 4 feet wide by 4 feet long (4′ x 4′ x 4′) and has a volume of 64 cubic feet. • The standard length for a piece of firewood is 16 inches. So a cord of wood would contain 3 stacked rows of wood to be 4 feet wide.
