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 Superseded by m³ after metrication. 1 H ton = 50 H ft ≈ 1.112 m³.
About Cubic feet
The cubic foot (ft³) = 0.028316846592 m³ (exact) - the primary US lumber volume unit for large structural timber; also underlies the cord (128 ft³) and board foot (1 bf = 1/12 ft³ nominal). US Forest Service sale contracts specify cruise volumes in Mbf or ft³. Export docs for EU/Asia convert to m³: 1 m³ = 35.315 ft³. 1 ft³ = 0.02832 m³ = 1,728 in³ ≈ 12 bf.
