Terms & Conditions

The rules for using boardfootmath.com, what the calculators do and do not promise, and the limits of our liability.

Last updated: October 17, 2026

Agreement to these terms

By using boardfootmath.com, you agree to these terms and conditions. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

These terms apply to every page on the site, including the board foot calculator and the linear feet calculator.

What the service is

boardfootmath.com provides free online calculators and reference material for lumber measurement: board feet, linear feet, square footage, common lumber sizes, and unit conversions.

The service is provided for general information and estimating. It is not a quote, an order, a specification, or professional advice.

Estimates only — verify before you buy

Every result is an estimate produced from the numbers you enter. Real-world quantities depend on factors the calculators cannot see: nominal versus actual dimensions, grading, defects, supplier rounding, fixed stock lengths, cutting layout, and local practice.

You are responsible for confirming quantities, dimensions, and costs with your supplier before purchasing. Do not rely on a single calculation for a material order.

For structural, load-bearing, or permit-regulated work, follow your engineer, architect, or local building authority. The site does not provide engineering or code advice.

Acceptable use

  • Do not attempt to disrupt, overload, or gain unauthorized access to the site or its infrastructure
  • Do not scrape or republish the site's content in bulk without permission
  • Do not remove attribution or misrepresent the source of the calculators
  • Do not use the site for unlawful purposes or in violation of applicable regulations

Intellectual property

The site's text, layout, design, code, and branding are owned by the site operator and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws, except where otherwise noted.

You may use the calculators freely for personal or business estimating, and you may quote short excerpts with a link back to the page. Republishing full pages, bulk copying content, or redistributing the site as your own requires written permission.

Standard measurement formulas are not owned by anyone; the explanations, examples, and presentation on this site are.

The site may display advertising and may link to third-party websites. Those sites are not under our control, and we are not responsible for their content, products, pricing, or privacy practices.

Including a link or displaying an ad does not mean we endorse the advertiser or the product.

No warranties

The site and its calculators are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that any result will be accurate for your specific material or project.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site operator is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, materials, data, or business opportunity, arising out of your use of or inability to use the site.

This includes losses from ordering the wrong quantity of material based on a calculation from this site.

Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability for any claim relating to the site is limited to the greater of the amount you paid to use the site (which is zero) or the minimum amount required by applicable law.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the site operator from claims, damages, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your misuse of the site or your breach of these terms.

Availability and changes

The site is free and may change without notice. Features, calculators, pages, and content may be added, modified, or removed at any time, and access may be interrupted for maintenance or technical reasons.

We may update these terms as the site evolves. The date at the top of this page shows the latest revision. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute relating to the site will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts located there.

If any provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force.
