Klafter [2]


Klafter [2] :

A traditional German unit of volume for stacked firewood, comparable to the English cord. A klafter of wood was generally 1 klafter tall and 1 klafter long, but there was less agreement on its width, that is, the length of the logs. A common width was 3 fuss or 0.5 klafter, making the volume about 3.41 steres (cubic meters) or 0.941 cord by the Viennese definition, 3.34 steres or 0.921 cord in northern Germany
