Calculate Bulk Bag Capacity





Formula

The formula to calculate the bulk bag capacity is:

\[ \text{BBC} = \left( \frac{L}{12} \right) \times \left( \frac{W}{12} \right) \times \left( \frac{H}{12} \right) \times 7 \]

What is Bulk Bag Capacity?

A bulk bag capacity is considered both the maximum volume of the bulk bag and the maximum weight the bulk bag can carry. Typically, bulk bags can hold around 7 pounds per cubic foot of volume.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{BBC} = \left( \frac{36}{12} \right) \times \left( \frac{36}{12} \right) \times \left( \frac{48}{12} \right) \times 7 = 252 \]

The bulk bag capacity is 252 lbs.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{BBC} = \left( \frac{24}{12} \right) \times \left( \frac{24}{12} \right) \times \left( \frac{36}{12} \right) \times 7 = 84 \]

The bulk bag capacity is 84 lbs.
