Height
Cubic Meter (m3)
Formula:
Length (centimeter) x Width (centimeter) x Height (centimeter) / 1,000,000 = Cubic meter (m3)
Length (meter) x Width (meter) x Height (meter) = Cubic meter (m3)
e.g. 35 cm x 35 cm x 45 cm = 0.055 cbm
Load ability of ocean containers
- 20’ft container 26-28 CBM
- 40’ft container 56-58 CBM
- 40’ft HQ container 60-68 CBM
- 45’ft HQ container about 78 CBM
