A typical, 2,000 square-foot, single-family home requires about 15,800
board feet of framing lumber and nearly 10,900 square feet of paneling anf
other wood products.
A board foot is a standard measure of the usable wood in a tree.
You can picture aboard foot as a piect of lumber one-inch thick, one foot
wide, and one foot long (1" x 12" x 12").
220 logging trucks are needed to carry one million board feet (MMBF)
of raw logs. That's 4,500 board feet per truck.
Roughly 35 jobs are created for Idaho residents for each million board
feet of wood processed.
