This will be very closely the weight in pounds Thus, if a block is 10 by 10 by Q, the product is 900 and this divided by 3t gives 30 pounds. as rrrrcct weight. A block 10 by 10 ny 6 weighs 20 pounds This simple method can be easily ap piled, and it may serve to remove un just suspicious, or to detect short weight
