Polyurethane Foam Weight Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Polyurethane Foam Weight.
PFW = FL * FW * FT * 1.2
Variables:
- PFW is the Polyurethane Foam Weight (lbs)
- FL is the foam length (ft)
- FW is the foam width (ft)
- FT is the foam thickness (ft)
How to Calculate Polyurethane Foam Weight?
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Polyurethane Foam Weight.
Example Problem #1
- First, determine the foam length (ft).
- The foam length (ft) is calculated to be : 3.
- Next, determine the foam width (ft).
- The foam width (ft) is measured to be: 4.
- Next, determine the foam thickness (ft).
- The foam thickness (ft) is found to be: .5.
- Finally, calculate the Polyurethane Foam Weight using the formula above:
PFW = FL * FW * FT * 1.2
The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.
PFW = 3 * 4 * .5 * 1.2 = 7.2 (lbs)
Example Problem #2
The variables required for this problem are provided below:
foam length (ft) = 6
foam width (ft) = 7
foam thickness (ft) = 1
Test your knowledge and check your answer with the calculator.
PFW = FL * FW * FT * 1.2 = (lbs)
