How to Calculate Linear Feet

One of the most important parts of planning an upcoming construction or home improvement project is to determine how much material is needed. For many projects, this will mean finding the linear feet of material being used in the project because many common construction materials (like lumber and steel, for instance) are often measured in feet and sold by the foot. Additionally, with the right measurements, figures for linear feet can easily be extrapolated into figures for square feet and cubic ("board") feet. Because of this, knowing how to find the linear feet of material needed for a project is an essential skill for any home improvement expert.
