How do you get volume weight?

To determine the dim weight of a package, you must first measure the length, width and height of the package in inches using the longest point on each side, taking into account any bulges or misshaped sides. You then multiply those dimensions to get the cubic size of the package.Nov 29, 2012 read more

When you calculate weight by volume, ensure that the units of volume you use match the units of volume in the density measurement. For example, if you want to weigh 25 cubic inches of lead, convert the volume from cubic inches into cubic centimeters first. read more

"Density = mass/volume (ρ=m/V). So V=m/ρ and has units (kilograms)/(kilograms per cubic meter)=cubic meter. If you are dealing with other units, say pounds, as a unit of weight,'then 1 kg corresponds to 2.21 lb at sea level in the sense that the weight of 1 kg is 2.21 lb at sea level. read more

Calculating the Volumetric Weight of a Package From time to time its necessary to calculate the volumetric weight of a package when the space a package takes on an aircraft may cost more than the package's actual weight. read more
