Forest ripe

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Which includes the forest frost , even frost or Raif , was a German Holzmaß and was considered to Würzburg . Its size was determined in the Würzburg Forest Regulations of 1740 and the dimensions of the cart in 1744. The cart should hold a city tire. The hoop was actually another name for fathoms . So one fathom of wood was equivalent to about 75 (74 ½) cubic feet (Nuremberg feet in height and width and 3 in length) or 1.8811 cubic meters . The Würzburg foot can be set at 130.2 Parisian lines or 0.2937 meters .

  • 10 forest tires = 11 carts (each 4½ feet wide by 5½ feet high and 3 in length)
