About Cubic metres
The cubic metre (m³) is the SI unit for all international timber trade and FAO forest statistics. Global roundwood production > 4 billion m³/year (2022); sawnwood ≈ 500 million m³/year. European C24 structural timber priced in EUR/m³; CLT mass-timber buildings use 500-2,000 m³ of panels. FSC/PEFC chain-of-custody tracks certified fibre in m³. 1 m³ = 1 stere = 35.315 ft³ ≈ 423.8 bf.
About Hoppus tons
The Hoppus ton (H ton) = 50 Hoppus feet = 50 × (Ο€/4) ft³ ≈ 1.112 m³. The '50' approximated one ton of tropical hardwood by weight (teak/mahogany at 700-900 kg/m³ × 1.112 m³ ≈ 0.9 metric ton). Standard for British colonial timber imports - teak from Burma, iroko from West Africa, meranti from SE Asia. Superseded by m³ after metrication. 1 H ton = 50 H ft ≈ 1.112 m³.
